Description
Author Biography
Google Preview: If you've ever wondered where to find fast answers to questions such as these about our sometimes baffling world, now you can quickly locate the best information science has to offer in these enjoyable pages. Using a question-and-answer format that is fun to read and easy to understand, Dr Charles Cazeau takes you through more than 450 of the most intriguing science questions, from the profound to the amusingly trivial. In the process he demonstrates just how fascinating our natural world is and how science helps us to explore and unravel nature's many wonders. Well organised for easy use, this entertaining yet educational guide to basic science begins with questions about the fringes of the universe and then moves inward through our solar system and continues with the Earth itself, covering evolution, plants, animals, and questions about health and nutrition. Dr Cazeau also devotes a section to the history of the human race and another to the many questions raised these days about the existence of UFOs, ghosts, mysterious powers of the mind, and other aspects of the paranormal. Whether you read this book from cover to cover or skip around to find the answers to your own special questions, you will give yourself an education painlessly and realise that science is not only important but fun.; Charles J. Cazeau, Ph.D. (1931-1999), was professor emeritus of geology at the State University of New York at Buffalo, the author of Exploring the Unknown (with Stuart D. Scott Jr.), and a contributor to Skeptical Inquirer and Free Inquiry.; Google Preview content
