THE ADVENTURE OF LIGHT

Light, which today we tend to take as for granted as the very sky and air, warmth, to which most contemporary Westerners have grown quite used, is the subject of this scientific history. Tracing the development of lighting and heating techniques from the earliest cave times to the present when light can be applied like paint, Frank Jupo's straightforward text and illustrations build on fact a dynamic of historical adventure. A clear and illuminating text which will be read with profit both as a school supplementary and as an independent reading project.
