Description:
"The Guinness Science Fact Book" is a useful and up-to-date introduction to major scientific topics and themes, ideal for both beginners and for those who like to keep abreast of the ever-changing discoveries in the field of science. In a series of self-contained illustrated spreads, written by over 20 teachers and university lecturers, "The Guinness Science Fact Book" outlines the basic principles of physics, chemistry, the biological sciences and mathematics, summarising statistics, providing easy reference to the formulae and laws of science that are most commonly encountered by students at school and outlining the applications of these laws and theories. In each section the technical and scientific terms, symbols and formulae that are relevant to that field are explained. The black and white illustrations cover topics as diverse as anatomy and trigonometry, wave theory and natural chemical compounds, the structure of flowering plants and optics; whilst an index of over 1500 entries lists every key object, theory and property mentioned in the text. It is this combination of summaries, glossaries and figures which make "The Guinness Science Fact Book" a useful reference tool for families, students and laypersons alike.
