| 55.William Harvey: Discoverer of How Blood Circulates (Great Minds of Science) by: Lisa Yount 1994-11 |
||
Average Rating:  >>More Details |
 |
|
| The book is 128 pages long, with 25 full-page black and white illustrations. One of the illustrations is a map of England (I love maps) and another is a photograph of present-day Folkestone, William Harvey's hometown. Also, as might be expected, we find many old drawings from the 1600s.
CONTEXT. The book is easy to understand for a number of reasons. These reasons include the disclosure of the context of various events, use of short sentences, and use of very short sentences. The ... Read More: |

| 56.100 Things You Should Know about Inventions (100 Things You Should Know Abt) by: Duncan Brewer March 01, 2003 |

|
| I LOVE the "100 things you should know" series. Each book is set up in similar fashion: by number and by category. Each category is covered in a two-page spread, featuring short paragraphs per number and illustrations or related information for about half of each paragraph. Items are pleasingly spaced, making them eye-easy. Illustrations are attractive and realistic enough.
So much for basics. Instead of working chronologically through the book, a team of writers and artists takes each ... Read More: |

 |
|
| The book contains 128 pages, with 20 black and white illustrations, and one map of Europe, with an emphasis on France (I love maps). The pages are semi-glossy, and the reproductions are quite good (not blurry), with good contrast.
The author starts by setting up an inviting context, namely that recipes for cooking cakes use ingredients and steps in the same way that procedures in chemistry use ingredients and steps. Then, the book touches on the scientific problems facing chemists at ... Read More: |

| When I first picked up a John Farman book in a bookstore in London, I was hooked from the beginning. Mr. Farman makes history fun for kids and adults alike. In this book, he explores the history of technology from the Greeks to the present day. This funny and informational book is one of his finest works of literature. |
