Synopsis

Intended for ages 12+, this is an accessible, thorough and fun introduction to the physical sciences and notable scientists. In a clear, lively style, each well-organised section explains the principles behind subjects ranging from the basic theories of energy, sound and light to the more sophisticated logic of relativity, nuclear physics and quantum mechanics. Paul imbues the topics with a sense of adventure, turning science into what it is meant to be - a discovery of the world and all its mysteries. Diagrams, lightly sprinkled throughout, help explain concepts discussed in the text.
