ADVENTURES IN SCIENCE

By

Publisher: Roy

A potpourri of articles and sketches about a variety of things includes material on racing car engines, the physiology of birds, undersea research and so on. Divided into sections on the instruments of science and careers in science, the articles are written with authority and the kind of liveliness that inspires. Other subjects covered include evolution, research chemistry, railroading, uses of nickel, weather, flying saucers, time, the nervous system, calculating machines, space travel, gas turbines, ants, and so on. Fine for any scientific minded youngster to sit down with and peruse.
