Discover the amazing secrets of the science of physics – full of wacky characters and crazy concepts, but often seeming daunting and unapproachable. From Gravity, the ultimate mover and shaker, to Higgs Boson, who's been playing hide and seek for fifty years, this book introduces you to a wild community of characters who control the universe.
Perfect for home and school, Basher's highly original books make difficult concepts tangible, understandable and even lovable. Chatty first-person text and stylish, contemporary character illustrations give a voice, personality and story to each topic – a brilliant way to communicate science.
