Sinossi

<div>Author Keltie Thomas and illustrator Greg Hall team up to look at hockey in a new way: from the perspective of science. Their book explores the all-important science of explosive moves (the slapshot) and maximizing a player&#8217;s chance of scoring; the science of speedy, powerful skating; the puck, stick, mask, and other equipment; the properties of ice and how skating surfaces are maintained; and the science of fitness and healing injuries. <i>How Hockey Works</i> includes personal stories from the inspirational (the stunning careers of Bobby Orr and Wayne Gretzky) to the hilarious (the puck&#8217;s origins as an India rubber ball reshaped by a frustrated rink owner). Informative sidebars, a &#147;Rules and Regs&#8221; section, and a glossary help make any reader an expert on the game. From casual to obsessed every hockey fan can find something in <i>How Hockey Works</i>.</div>
