Eureka!: Scientific Breakthroughs That Changed the World Book
A fascinating tour of great moments in science From Newton's apple to Fleming's mold, from the structure of carbon molecules to the structure of DNA, Eureka! tells the true stories behind some of the most memorable and revolutionary discoveries in the history of science, and the dedicated, often unconventional scientists who made them. You'll meet Philo Farnsworth, who, as a 14-year-old boy, got the idea for the TV screen while plowing the fields of his family's Idaho farm; Benoit Mandelbrot, who discovered a hidden order of nature in the "trash cans of science," and Charles Townes, who invented an amazing device that no one needed-at the time. Eureka! brings you these and other amazing stories, including: Joseph Priestley and the discovery of oxygen Albert Einstein and the theory of gravity Charles Darwin and the theory of evolution Dmitri Mendeleyev and the periodic table Alfred Wegener and the theory of continental driftRead More
