Its never been more important to engage a childs scientific curiosity, and Sean Connolly knows just how to do itwith lively, hands-on, seemingly dangerous experiments that pop, ooze, crash, and teach! Now, the author of The Book of Totally Irresponsible Science , takes it one step further: He leads kids through the history of science, and then creates amazing yet simple experiments that demonstrate key scientific principles.
Tame fire just like a Neanderthal with the Fahrenheit 451 experiment. Round up all your friends and track the spread of disease using body glitter with an experiment inspired by Edward Jenner, the vaccination pioneer whos credited with saving more lives than any other person in history. Rediscover the wheel and axle with the ancient Sumerians, and perform an astounding experiment demonstrating the theory of angular momentum. Build a simple telescopejust like Galileosand find the four moons he discovered orbiting Jupiter (an act that helped land him in prison). Take a less potentially catastrophic approach to electricity than Ben Franklin did with the Lightning Mouth experiment. Re-create the Hadron Collider in a microwave with marshmallows, calculator, and a rulerit wont jeopardize Earth with a simulated Big Bang, but will demonstrate the speed of light. And its tasty!
By letting kids stand on the shoulders of Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, the Wright brothers, Marie Curie, Darwin, Watson and Crick, and more, The Book of Potentially Catastrophic Science is an uncommonly engaging guide to science, and the great stories of the men and women behind the science.
