শিশু-কিশোর উপযোগী পদার্থবিজ্ঞানের ইন্ট্রোডাক্টরি বই। প্রাথমিক পদার্থবিজ্ঞানের ভালো ধারণা পাওয়া যাবে, বিস্তারিত বর্ণণা নয়। গ্রাফিক নভেল এর মতো কার্টুন-ক্যারিক্যাচার দিয়ে একেকটি বিষয় উপস্থাপন করা। মাধ্যমিক পদার্থবিজ্ঞানের অনেক বিষয়ই অন্তর্ভুক্ত এখানে,তবে জটিল গাণিতিক সমীকরণ বর্জিত। অ্যাকাডেমিক বইয়ের পাশাপাশি, এই ধরণের বইয়ের প্রচলন খুব দরকার আমাদের।
আশাকরি কোন মহান অনুবাদক অদূর ভবিষ্যতে এর অনুবাদ করে জাতিকে আলোকিত ও ধন্য ধরবেন ;) ।

An awesome non-fiction book that is written for people who are really into physics. It contains almost all the laws of physics. This is an easy-to-understand, nicely written and illustrated, true book for future scientists.

This book was just so surprising. I think physics is a very interesting topic as all you are learning about really is just everything.

Engaging, lots of pictures and graphics. High quality information that reflected my own college physics courses. Bought by my mother to help ME understand physics more, and I'm sure my students will love this one. Also includes experiments, and will be a good reference of equations for when I teach this.

A very effective book for learning the basics of physics, not enough information to give you an indepth knowledge though, good for a quick, fun learning.
