Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. What if a mysterious compass could unlock the secrets of history's greatest innovators?At an academy for gifted students in Palo Alto, four sophomores discover an extraordinary compass hidden in a nearby garden: an antique compass with the power to enable "resonance," a form of mental time travel that allows them to witness pivotal moments from the past.Guided by their enigmatic mentor, Professor Roy, the students embark on an unforgettable journey through the lives of three visionary figures who transformed the modern world: Albert Einstein, Robert Noyce, and Steve Jobs. From the birth of relativity and quantum physics, to the invention of the integrated circuit and the rise of Silicon Valley, to the digital revolution that reshaped communication and culture, the teens experience history not as distant observers, but as participants immersed in the triumphs, conflicts, and human struggles behind world-changing ideas.As the journey unfolds, the students confront profound questions about innovation, ambition, ethics, friendship, and the responsibility that comes with knowledge. They also begin to realize that the compass itself may have a deeper purpose, and that its future could shape generations to come.Blending historical fact with imaginative fiction, "The Compass" is a sweeping coming-of-age adventure that explores the people and ideas behind the technological age. Four teenagers travel through time to witness the genius of Albert Einstein, Robert Noyce, and Steve Jobs in this historical novel, based on true events, celebrating science and innovation and telling the story of the birth of Silicon Valley.
