Description

Science & Discovery is a riveting presentation, in understandable language, of the ideas of three of history's significant scientific figures. Special emphasis on clear and relevant explanations gives you a new arsenal of knowledge about how the world works!

ISAAC NEWTON'S PHYSICS

Newton was a natural philosopher who described a planetary system held together by gravitational forces. His "Principia" changed science forever, establishing a way of thinking that still shapes our everyday understanding of physics and movement.

DARWIN & EVOLUTION

Darwin introduced the idea that mankind and other species are descended from common ancestors, evolving through strictly natural processes such as natural selection ("survival of the fittest"). Darwin's controversial ideas sparked a debate that still rages today.

EINSTEIN'S REVOLUTION

In 1905, Albert Einstein's name became synonymous with "genius" when his Theory of Relativity challenged old concepts in physics, shaking our conventional ideas about space and time.
