      Gr 5-8-Examining more than a dozen major discoveries in each volume, this set chronicles scientific breakthroughs that have had a tremendous impact on the world. Developments in the fields of chemistry, earth and space science, life science, medicine, and physics are presented in chronological order, emphasizing how scientists continually build upon the findings of their predecessors through scientific inquiry, observation, and experimentation. Designed to look like a student's spiral notebook, the layout, complete with sidebars that appear to be taped or stapled to the page and tabs that name a scientific pioneer and the date of his discovery, is colorful and engaging without being gimmicky; it certainly helps that the content is well written and to the point. VERDICT A solid history of science and technology.
