A Little History of Science by William F Bynum
Science is fantastic. It tells us about the infinite reaches of space, the tiniest living organism, the human body, the history of Earth. This book tells a great adventure story: the history of science. It takes readers to the stars through the telescope, as the sun replaces the earth at the centre of our universe.
