Inhaltsangabe

Discover the riveting world of building and machines in this ultimate guide to engineering.

Basher Science: Engineering is a compelling guide to a community of characters who come together to construct a whole world of amazing machines and incredible buildings. Learn about the scientific principles and natural materials that allow engineers to transform the world, and discover the function of various machine parts including levers, gears, and hydraulics. Then go right back to the planning stage, and find out how engineers plan projects, using blueprints and prototypes.

Finally, discover some of the machines that engineering creates, including rockets, microchips, smartphones and more!

Basher's unique illustrations combine with chatty, first-person text by expert author Tom Jackson to hook even the most reluctant readers and help them to understand the science behind the headlines.
