Pros & Cons
Pros
A mighty ambitious book that is awe-inspiring. A great reference book to accompany him through his schooling years.
The paperback is about 8x10 with an edition date of 2011. Pick this book up and learn by just paging through the book. The book is organized historically rather than by subject matter. There was another edition in 2015.
The book is illustrated in chronological order by scientific principle. Covers a wide range of fascinating scientific topics from the use of fire to tackling climate change.
Amusing and digestible. Arrived in great condition --- as advertised. Gave to grandsons so review is in their hands.
Large-format visual guide from dorling kindersley. Filled to bursting with glorious color illustrations. Provides a panoramic view of the vast canvas that is science.
