Synopsis
Aimed at the popular market, this book draws for its examples on familiar concepts, and uses straightforward text and colour illustrations to reveal how the fundamentals of science work in the everyday world. Each of the five chapters covers a major branch of science, from space to energy, atoms and matter, life itself, and brains and computers. Every double-page spread provides a self-contained explanation of any given subject, whilst a cross-referencing system offers an opportunity to delve into it further, or to examine other, related scientific areas. Colin Ronan was runner-up for the 1992 Rhone-Poulene science book award with "Natural History of the Universe".
