by John Pfeiffer ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
A simple presentation of some of the scientific facts behind the things with which we are most intimate, -- heat, light, power, sound, sight. Some of the steps between Galileo and television are traced, in such a way that the person wanting to understand new inventions and old, will at least have bowing acquaintance with such terms as atoms, molecules, wave lengths, electrons, gravity, etc.
