Description
Science Magic by Martin Gardner: Make an eggshell do a somersault, balance a glass on a banknote, teach a bear to climb a wire and do many other experiments, simple tricks and puzzles! Martin Gardner is a mathematician, a scientist and a master of math puzzles. In this book, he shows more than 80 of his finest tricks and teaches children and adults the scientific properties of water, air, fire, heat, motion, gravity, inertia, friction, electricity, magnetism, sound and light.
It’s fun and fascinating, and only ordinary everyday props such as matches, knives, boiling water, banknotes, balloons, coins, cards, forks and more are required. Sometimes the experiments are marked with a symbol to show children that they need help from an adult.
The book is in English – and all the experiments are illustrated with fine line drawings.
