What makes a quark? How many quarks make a proton? How many protons make an oxygen atom? How many oxygen atoms make a carbon dioxide molecule? How many carbon atoms make you? In this accessible little book, packed with helpful diagrams and interesting information, science writer Matt Tweed takes us on a whirlwind tour into the tiny realms, the stuff we are all made of, the building blocks of the material world, the elements of chemisty.
Curious about quarks, quasars and the fantastic universe around you? Ever wanted to explore a mathematical proof? Need some trigonometry fast? Want to swat up on physics, chemistry, or learn some new biology? Ever wondered why your scratches itch just before you go to sleep? Beautifully illustrated and packed with fascinating and useful information, SCIENCIA is the ultimate one-stop science reference book for inquisitive readers of all ages. Whether you just want to brush up on what you learnt at school, still are at school or never went to school, these pages will test you, stretch you, and make you brainier. Scientia brings together the six bestselling science books from the 'Wooden Books' series. Together they cover almost the whole of the A-level syllabus in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology.
The cosmos is a very big place indeed and most people find it rather too enormous. Hence, this very small book takes the reader on a clever little journey through it all. Packed with information on everything from Supernovae to Galaxy Clusters and Black Holes, as well as all the latest theories about how it might have come into being, this is probably the densest, and certainly the greenest book ever written on the Universe in the Universe. It is printed in sepia inks on 100 per cent recycled papers.
Prime Numbers, Quantum Physics and a Journey to the Centre of Your Mind addresses profound questions about the number system through an accessible tour of some key ideas from both quantum mechanics and chaos theory. Having read this, you will never be able to look at the number system (or reality in general) in quite the same way again.
The Mystery of the Prime Numbers uses an innovative visual approach to communicate some surprisingly advanced mathematical ideas without any need for formulas or equations. The issue of prime numbers acts as a gateway into some truly strange philosophical territory whose relevance extends well beyond mathematics.
