Publisher Description

Science is such a crucial part of our daily lives. Asking why things happen, how they work and what makes them behave in a certain way is what drives scientific discoveries.

Meet Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Louis Pasteur, Michael Faraday, and Francis Crick and discover their amazing scientific contributions from a very personal perspective, within the context of their lives and times.

Discover the life of Charles Darwin as a child, when he began to realize the direction he wanted to take his life in. Meet Newton, author of The Principia, which is considered to be among the most influential books in the history of science, laying the groundwork for most of classical mechanics. Enhance your knowledge and understanding of science, as well as hearing about the people who were behind some of the most important developments in their fields.
