The Science Book


Overview

With a foreword by Simon Singh this breathtaking book features 250 of the most significant milestones in the history of scientific discovery, offering a unique perspective on our unfolding view of the universe from the origins of counting and the concept of 'zero' to cloned cells and the human genome. A beautifully simple design complements short, lucid essays on each breakthrough, placed next to the most striking images available. Now in a new easy-to-handle format, this is the most unique science book ever published - the first truly accessible, fully illustrated story of science, with special contributions from leading scientists and science writers.
