The Colour of Light by Meredith Hooper

The Colour of Light by Meredith Hooper

Isaac Newton is not sure what light is so he buys a prism, holds it up to the beam of light and he sees a rainbow and wonders what it can mean. This book gives an insight into the scientist and explains his theories and work simply. Part of a series that introduces children to famous scientists.

Meredith Hooper has the rare, possibly unique, distinction of being selected as a writer in Antarctica by three government programmes - the US National Science Foundation Artists and Writers Program, twice; by the British Admiralty, travelling on HMS Endurance, and by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions. She has written a range of books and articles on Antarctica (general market, academic, children's). Meredith Hooper is a UK Trustee of the Brussels-based International Polar Foundation, a Trustee of the UK Antarctic Heritage Trust and served as a juror on the British Antarctic Survey's Artists and Writers Programme. She was awarded the Antarctica Service Medal by the US Congress in 2000. Meredith was born in Australia and has been living in the UK since taking up a scholarship at Oxford to do post-graduate research.
