Help your child become the next Thomas A Edison! This science kit and 40 page full
color book help kids recreate some of the most famous inventions. Step-by-step,
highly visual instructions lead a child successfully through each invention making
it fun and educational. Incredible illustrations present central scientific concepts,
allowing children to discover the "why" as well as the "how". The use of common
everyday materials demystifies the way common electronic components work.
Although "Inventions" is designed for 8 year olds and up, this title has
had an extraordinary history and following. It has been used at MIT to mentor
high school students in physics. It has been used at U.C. Berkeley to mentor
women in science. It has been used similarly at other institutions including
Fermi Lab and the University of Texas at Austin. We heard rumors, that at one
point, a number of physicists at Berkeley were spinning the hand made motors
from Inventions on their desks, competing for the bragging
rights as to whose was spinning the fastest.
The Authors: Dr. Penny Norman has a Ph.D. in Biophysics from
U.C. Berkeley and Ann Einstein is a teacher in the Berkeley school system
and has been writing for ScienceWiz books since 1994. The award winning
imaging of Art Huff has made this book a classic. ScienceWiz science kits
are great for individual use, homeschooling activities, and are a great
source of science fair project ideas!
Awards! Parent's Choice seal of approval, Scientific American young
reader's book award, National Parenting magazine award.
