1. All about physics
Richard Hammond explains everything about physics in this popular award-winning series, from the discoveries of ancient Greece to the discoveries of Einstein, Galileo and Newton.
Physics doesnt just happen in the lab - it happens in the kitchen, in your bathroom, in the car! Join an exciting high-energy journey through time, space and beyond to understand the physical forces that make our world. Learn how science affects everything from roller coasters to fighter pilots. Filled with fascinating physical facts and interactive experiments.
2. All about chemistry
Long ago, people began to look for answers about the earth, the universe and matter, and there are still many problems to be solved. If we remove the mysterious veil of alchemists, we will find that these gold miners actually use the knowledge of chemical elements.
Chemical elements exist in this world from beginning to end. They are the answers to many questions in life. For example: what is the human body made of? What do we live on? How to reduce carbon dioxide emissions? How to find clean energy to drive cars?
This book is to take you into the world of chemical elements, let you know elements, understand chemistry, love chemistry, like chemistry, let you find that learning chemistry is very interesting.
3. All about biology
In less than 100000 years, we have been able to raise and sometimes answer some profound scientific questions. Now, we can not only study life, but also create some tiny and simple organisms in the laboratory.
Perhaps the profound scientific question is "what is life?". At first glance, this question sounds very simple, but it still cannot be answered satisfactorily. No matter when, where and how life began, or a series of complex questions about how we and other organisms evolved, there are no definite answers. Moreover, we dont know whether there are other extraterrestrial life in this universe. Maybe they are in distant galaxies that humans will never reach.
This book answers some fascinating questions, as well as what we know about human beings and other life. I hope that by reading this book, you can be interested in the search for life - this is the science called Biology - which will be a wonderful journey.
4. All about evolution
Are you ready for an evolutionary revolution? Let Professor Robert Winston take you on a journey of discovery by changing the world through evolutionary science and Charles Darwins revolutionary theory.
Explore the land of fire, meet curious creatures, look to the future, follow Darwins epic journey and find the origin of species. Find out what survival of the fittest means and see how it works in nature: from discovering how elephants grow noses to ghost genes in your own body. Look at the main genealogies of the life world and join the debate about whether humans really evolved from apes. Spoiler Alert: we have a common ancestor.
Explore how previous thinkers thought life began and how the theory developed after Darwin. Modern science reveals the secrets of genes and DNA and reveals the future development.
This book focuses on you, your friends and the origin of every creature on earth!
