Carregando... The Mystery of Life: How Nothing Became Everythingde Jan Paul Schutten
   Books Read in 2018 (3,917) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.  TAndrewH | Nov 15, 2020 |   Het boek is grappig, grondig, begrijpelijk en moedigt de lezer sterk aan om een kritische blik te hebben en een eigen mening te vormen. De sectie over leven uit het cambrium is iets te lang naar mijn zin. Ik hoef geen uitgebreide beschrijving van de prehistorische stromatolieten, kwallen, platwormen, opabinia, wiwaxia, kimberella, holothuria, hallucigenia, spriggina, anomalocaris, natuiloïde, ammonieten, trilobieten, manteldieren, slijmprikken én megalodonnen. Dat is gewoon iets te veel van het goede. Verder is er eigenlijk niets op aan te merken! (  ) s1120682 | Jul 28, 2020 | Bookman1954 | Oct 21, 2015 | sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

"No generation has yet had to cope with the kind of rapid changes in science and technology that are facing today's teens. This is why "STEM education" is the latest buzz term and science literacy is enjoying a renewed focus. A foundation in basic science is key. With decades of scientific knowledge behind him and a genuine sense of fun in his approach, Jan Paul Schutten rewards curiosity with engaging explanations about some of the most complicated scientific issues that exist, and tells readers that there is much left to discover. For example: Why does the paramecium deserve a standing ovation? How do you build a planet? Does a tree want to be tall? How does a bacterium turn into a blue whale? How can you survive without a rear end? How can you yourself see evolution at work? Why would aliens most likely be meat-eaters? Are scientists not telling us everything?"-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
