Simple explanations of complex ideas for your future genius!
Written by an expert, Electromagnetism for Babies is a colorfully
simple introduction to magnetic fields and how they work. Babies
(and grownups!) will learn all about positive charges, negative
charges, and electric currents. With a tongue-in-cheek approach
that adults will love, this installment of the Baby University
board book series is the perfect way to introduce basic concepts to
even the youngest scientists. After all, it's never too early to
become a scientist! Baby University: It only takes a small spark to
ignite a child's mind.

Written by a former Olympiad student, Wang Jinhui, and a Physics
Olympiad national trainer, Bernard Ricardo, Competitive Physics
delves into the art of solving challenging physics puzzles. This
book not only expounds a multitude of physics topics from the
basics but also illustrates how these theories can be applied to
problems, often in an elegant fashion. With worked examples that
depict various problem-solving sleights of hand and interesting
exercises to enhance the mastery of such techniques, readers will
hopefully be able to develop their own insights and be better
prepared for physics competitions. Ultimately, problem-solving is a
craft that requires much intuition. Yet, this intuition can only be
honed by mentally trudging through an arduous but fulfilling
journey of enigmas.Mechanics and Waves is the first of a two-part
series which will discuss general problem-solving methods, such as
exploiting the symmetries of a system, to set a firm foundation for
other topics.

Did you know that energy comes from the food you eat? From the sun and wind? From fuel and heat? You get energy every time you eat. You transfer energy to other things every time you play baseball. In this book, you can find out all the ways you and everyone on earth need energy to make things happen.
Aimed at graduate students, this book explores some of the core
phenomena in non-equilibrium statistical physics. It focuses on the
development and application of theoretical methods to help students
develop their problem-solving skills. The book begins with
microscopic transport processes: diffusion, collision-driven
phenomena, and exclusion. It then presents the kinetics of
aggregation, fragmentation and adsorption, where the basic
phenomenology and solution techniques are emphasized. The following
chapters cover kinetic spin systems, both from a discrete and a
continuum perspective, the role of disorder in non-equilibrium
processes, hysteresis from the non-equilibrium perspective, the
kinetics of chemical reactions, and the properties of complex
networks. The book contains 200 exercises to test students'
understanding of the subject. A link to a website hosted by the
authors, containing supplementary material including solutions to
some of the exercises, can be found at
www.cambridge.org/9780521851039.

brightens our day, firelight flickers in the night, electric lights
fill our homes-and some animals even make the sea glow! With lively
illustrations and diagrams and clear, engaging text, this Level 2
Let's-Read-and-Find-Out picture book is a fascinating look into the
many ways that light brightens our world. Now rebranded with a new
cover look, this book features rich vocabulary and uses simple, fun
diagrams to clearly explain concepts like light speed. This book
also includes a find out more section with activities that show why
plants need light to grow and why our shadows look different
throughout the day. Both text and artwork were vetted for accuracy
by Russell P. Leslie, Professor and Associate Director of the
Lighting Research Center at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
This is a Level 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out, which means the book
explores more challenging concepts perfect for children in the
primary grades and supports the Common Core Learning Standards and
Next Generation Science Standards. Let's-Read-and-Find-Out is the
