Archimedes by Peter Lafferty
This is one of a series which looks at the development of scientific thought and discovery through the lives and achievements of some of the world's great scientists. The book examines the life of the mathematician and inventor Archimedes, his inventions which could lift huge weights, the Archimedian screw and Archimedes' Principle, which explains buoyancy. It also tells the story of Archimedes taking a bath and solving the problem of how to measure the volume of a crown, which so excited him that he ran out into the street yelling "Eureka". Some historians called him the "father of experimental science" because he tested his ideas by experiment, laying the foundation for all future scientific work.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
