[Paul · Rating 2 out of 5]

I read The Visual Dictionary of Physics By Eyewitness visual Dictionaries for my science book. This book is perfect for a reader that learns visually and through demonstration. If you want to be interested the whole way through the book you will need to be very interested in science and have a very long attention span. Through parts of the book I fell asleep because random facts are often repeated. Most of the topics are relevant and important but I think a few are not like Wave behavior.

This book talks about a lot of experiments and it has a lot of pictures that are interesting. Physics is the study if matter and energy. Matter is anything that takes up space. Energy affects the behavior of matter. The science of physics is based on he formulation and testing theories. A force is a push or pull, it doesn't matter how hard
