Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. A groundbreaking guide for teens and parents alike, redefining science education and setting a new standard for inspiring future learners. -Zhiping Weng Professor and Chair U Mass Medical SchoolCuriosity is a crucial aspect of children's development but often the question "Why?" receives the answer "Because" with no further information. In his innovative new book Why Don't Spinning Tops Fall?, Charles DeLisi follows Caroline from age 13 to 17 in a series of nine wide-ranging in-depth conversations about science and engineering. While DeLisi says the book is aimed at a thoughtful high-school student, many of us, including me, have a lot to learn from these chapters! -Michael; Waterman, Professor of Mathematics and Biology University of Southern California". DeLisi proves to be a superb teacher over the course of this book, and his explications, with accompanying graphs and charts (all well-chosen, and never overwhelming), wonderfully demystify the many wonders of the everyday. British polymath Thomas Young's famous double-slit experiment to determine the nature of light, for instance, is laid out with clarity while sacrificing none of its complexity. There's plenty of technical jargon and specificity in these pages, but it's all organized into prose that's formidable but never intimidating. Also, although Caroline's comments may seem unrealistic at times, DeLisi is careful to make her questions grow in depth and complexity as she ages, which neatly reflects the growing confidence his readers will have as they work their way through his primer. The book's consideration of the complicated nature of Earth's climate, and its surprising fragility in the face of human activity, is especially well done." -Kirkus ReviewsGold Book Awardee for ", books that we find perfect in their delivery of original content, using fresh themes to convey innovative ideas and employing elegant prose to transform words into expertly written literature." -Literary Titan This item is printed on demand.
