Ever wonder why the sky is blue or why most plants happen to be green? Or why stomach acid doesn't dissolve your stomach, or why there are more tornados in the Midwest than along either coast?The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Science of Everything answers these questions and many, many more, shedding light on the science behind more than 200 intriguing questions, educating readers on the fundamentals of science in the process. In a book that is as informative as it is entertaining, readers learn about every major branch of science, including: Physics (Why do figure skaters spin faster when they pull their arms in?) Chemistry (How does salt melt ice?) Biology (How does a chameleon change its colour?) Geology (Why do so many earthquakes occur along the Pacific coast?) Meteorology (Why does the jet stream flow from west to east in North America?) Astronomy (What causes Jupiter's big red spot?) Cosmology (Do black holes really exist and can anything escape them?)In addition, the book highlights some of the really big ideas that helped shape science as we know it today, and discusses the future of science with cutting edge topics such as nanotechnology, genetic modification, molecular medicine, and string theory. This book also makes an ideal easy-to-read science teaching resource for primary school teachers.Author: Steve MillerTitle: The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Science of EverythingFormat: Paperback, 400 pagesPublished: 06/11/2008 by Dorling Kingsley

Hear the low rumble start to grow as you shake this amazing thunder maker, and then climax into the most realistic loud thunder sound you have ever heard! The perfect way to grab and keep your students attention while they learn about sound waves in a column. Or just for fun.Age: 5+ What you getThunder maker in a box (approx. 19cm high)How does it work?Wobble and shake the thunder tube with one hand to make the attached spring dance. The vibrations in the long, narrow spring are an example of standing wave (a wave that remains in a constant position) because the vibrations are moving in the opposite direction to the spring. When the sound waves reach the tube or diaphragm, they resonate up and down against the tube and result in an amplified thunder sound. Try creating different sounds by changing the strength of your shake or by running your fingers down the spring. Teach Science of sound WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD Small Parts.
