Overview

Why does an astronaut bouncing on the moon weigh more than you do down on Earth? And what has the three bears' porridge got to do with Earth? (It's not too hot, not too cold, it’s just right.) In this funny and at times mind-boggling introduction to physics, you’ll learn everything from basic ideas like the structure of atoms and the radiation spectrum to BIG ideas like the Big Bang and how Isaac Newton figured out the law of gravity simply because an apple fell on his head. You’ll also learn about some of the exciting things physicists are discovering today about science. Is time travel possible? Do robots think like humans? Brimming full of informative and accessible text, and illustrated with fun and brilliant colourful artwork, turn the pages and start your very own Physics adventure!

Author Information

Tom Jackson is a science writer based in Bristol, UK. Tom specialises in recasting science and technology into lively historical narratives. After almost 20 years of writing for children and adults, Tom has uncovered a wealth of stories that help to bring technical content alive and create new ways of enjoying learning about science. In his time, Tom has been a zoo keeper, travel writer, buffalo catcher and filing clerk, but he now writes for adults and children, for books, magazine and TV. Tom is the author of Chilled: How Refrigeration Changed the World and Might Do So Again, published by Bloomsbury Sigma. Steven lives in North London and works from a little studio in his house. Steven`s main focus is always the cast of characters that brings life and movement to the picture. He loves to emphasise subtle humour, taking influence from the adventure stories he loved as a child. When not working, Steven`s favourite hobby is stealing biscuits from his girlfriend and blaming the `house mouse’.
