- Book Synopsis
- This beautiful hardback guide introduces young readers to Albert Einstein's ground-breaking theory of relativity, told with accessible text and full-colour illustrations. Among the many scientific advances that have shaped our world, few have been as important, or influential, as the theory that changed the way we think about gravity, space and time. This beautifully illustrated book brings to life Einstein's radical ideas - the theories of special and general relativity - for a new generation of inquisitive readers. Bright young minds will quickly level up their understanding of physics and mathematics, thanks to the way that complex ideas are cleverly unpacked in clear, easy-to-follow language. Readers can: Explore Einstein's life story, his years pondering scientific puzzles, and how he came to write the most famous equation in science: E = MC2. Take a tour through the great scientist's ideas and theories as they're set out in an accessible and entertaining way. Uncover the world in which Einstein lived, how his notions were received, and how they influenced both contemporary and later thinkers. Lavishly illustrated by Juanita Londoño-Gaviria, this book is a wonderful way to support STEM learning and makes a wonderful gift. Perfect for readers aged 8+. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Genius Ideas series introduces children to ground-breaking scientific theories from some of history's greatest minds, brought to life by delightful, full-colour illustrations.
