This book is written for students and other interested readers as a look inside the diverse range of applications for physics outside of the scientific research environment. This first volume covers several different areas of the arts and design ranging from stage lighting to sculpting. The author has interviewed experts in each area to explain how physics and technology impact their work. These are all useful examples of how physics encountered in taught courses relates to the real world.

What keeps objects from floating out of your hand?What if your feet drifted away from the ground?What stops everything from floating into space?Gravity. As in his previous books, "Redwoods," "Coral Reefs," and "Island," Jason Chin has taken a complex subject and made it brilliantly accessible to young readers in this unusual, innovative, and very beautiful book.

The most effective way for children to learn about science is through hands-on experience, not through memorising theory. That principle is at the heart of Waldorf science teaching, and is the basis for this invaluable book. The authors explore the nature of 'phenomenological' -- experiential -- science' and how it can help middle-school students engage with physics, and stimulate observation and wonder. The book has step-by-step experiments that demonstrate how to approach science in this lively, real-life way. It is an essential book for any teacher who wants to bring this kind of fulfilling interaction into their classroom.
