Whether you can’t wait for science lessons or are approaching them with trepidation, this lively introduction to physics will intrigue, entertain and inform you.
Our guides are Professor Albert Katzenstein, a cat, and his enthusiastic assistant Scooter the guinea pig. Via a series of comic strips accompanied by illustrated pages of text, they provide the answers to a range of fascinating questions, using physics. The questions range from how to see a magnetic field, how to split an atom to how to move at superspeed. In each case Scooter is – yes – the guinea pig, trying things out, asking the professor questions readers would ask, and providing a lot of comic relief too. It helps us all understand and absorb the information, no matter how complex the science.
