Scientists And Their Mind Blowing Experiments

Dead Famous

by Mike Goldsmith, Ana Nunes (Translator), Clive Goddard (Illustrador)

Provavelmente já ouviste falar de alguns cientistas...
- Galileu Galileu e o seu telescópio
- Isaac Newton e a sua maçã
- Charles Darwin e a sua teoria da evolução.
Mas já sabias que:
- Galileu foi condenado a prisão perpétua pelas suas ideias chocantes sobre o sistema solar
- Newton nem gostava assim muito de ciência
- Darwin escreveu um livro sobre os seus vermes de estimação?
Sim, mesmo depois de mortos, os cientistas ainda estão cheio de surpresas — e os nove que aparecem neste livro são ainda mais surpreendentes do que todos os outros. Agora podes ficar a conhecer o conteúdo dos seus blocos e diários secretos, ler os títulos dos jornais que publicitaram as suas descobertas e saber tudo acerca das suas experiências explosivas.

کتابی به زبان داستان با تصاویر کاریکاتوری از سرگذشت مهمترین اکتشافات چند دانشمند بزرگ که به نظر میرسه نویسنده اش درک درستی از خدا نداره.....
کلا خوندن سیر و سرگذشت دانشمندا جالبه ...

This collection of books has a special place in my childhood.
It simplifies themes in a way that young people will find funny and engaging.
This one is about famous scientists, and you will find funny facts about the likes of Da Vinci, Galileo, etc.

This was quite fun! Really enjoyed this book on a few chosen scientists. I liked the stories which were detailed enough but never got boring. There are also illustrations and it's funny, but don't expect to die of laughter, it's more informative than comical. I have another one of this series and I'll surely read that one, too.

This book is about the nine most world changing Scientists and how exactly their experiments changed the world. For example Galileo discovered and has shown that no matter what the mass of an object the object will fall at the same time. This book also shows Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution.

I think the theme is to commemorate the scientists who helped us get to the world that we live in today. Because they took risks of being burnt alive decapitated,and put down and because they persisted we know the truth about this universe.

I recommend this book to people who want to research well known scientists.Why? Because this book shows the most important facts about the scientist and also the interesting facts that you probably did not know about them.

Came across this amazing book in my school library and decided to give it a reading. Aaaaaand it turned out to be such a delightful and informative book that I couldn't put it down and went on to read it in a single night. However the info wasn't much of a news to me but the book's layout is just so damn engaging, and funny, and witty. Highly recommended for kids and teenagers, primarily owing to the amusing illustrations.

I learnt the lengths scientists go to just to do experiments and invent new things. The thing that makes this book more interesting is that when you buy it it comes with cards dat have questions and the answers behind them and you can test yourself or a friend like a quiz

I bought this book off a Scholastic Book Fair in my school , and I have to say - it was - and still is : AMAZING! It's everything I wanted - for a Science Oriented Book to be. Lot's of fun Trivia , Pictures and crazy-cartoonish explanations. I'm a BIG FAN. A Must Buy for everyone.

Je to o Galileo Gallileovi, Charlesi Darwinovi, Marii Curie a třeba ještě o Albertu Einsteinovi. Je to docela legrační knížka.
