Albert Einstein and the Theory of Relativity by Jordi Bayarri Dolz (English) Pap

Description: Albert Einstein and the Theory of Relativity by Jordi Bayarri Dolz Albert Einsteins restless intelligence drove him to ponder the biggest topics the universe has to offer: light, time, mass, energy, and more. His conclusions changed the way people thought about the laws of physics. But first, he had to pass his university entrance exams. This graphic biography traces Einsteins path from his home country of Germany to his studies in Switzerland to his time in the United States. It also follows his life as an international scientific celebrity and his refusal to stay silent in the face of anti-Semitism.

"—School Library Journal, Series Made Simple Review Quote "This new nonfiction graphic novel series focuses on famous scientists from childhood through the hardships they endured in pursuit of their passions--from Albert Einsteins divorce and his move to America during the Nazi rise to power in Germany, to Marie Curies struggle to obtain an education in Russian-occupied Poland. The author also discusses unexpected opportunities, like Charles Darwins life-altering voyage on the Beagle. Bayarri infuses cartoon illustrations with historical details that should open up class discussion about world events--such as Curie taking her X-ray machine to the front lines of World War I to assist injured soldiers. Back matter includes an archival photo or image of the scientist, as well as a glossary, a time line, an index, and a list of further resources. These first titles in the series highlight only one woman and no people of color--hopefully future installments will address these deficits. VERDICT These simple introductions to famous figures of science may lead students to explore further."--School Library Journal Feature Inviting graphic approach to STEM topics Reluctant-reader friendly Series includes a range of science topics Consultant with a PhD in the history of science reviewed each book for accuracy Description for Press or Other Media Featured in eNewsletter, National Advertising, National Publicity Campaign, National Review Attention, Promotional Materials, Special Publicity Mailing to Childrens Media Outlets Details ISBN1541586964 Pages 40 Publisher Lerner Publishing Group Series Graphic Science Biographies Year 2020 ISBN-10 1541586964 ISBN-13 9781541586963 Format Paperback Place of Publication Minneapolis Country of Publication United States DEWEY B Language English Publication Date 2020-01-01 AU Release Date 2020-01-01 NZ Release Date 2020-01-01 US Release Date 2020-01-01 UK Release Date 2020-01-01 Illustrations Glossary; Index; Illustrations, color Author Jordi Bayarri Dolz Illustrator Jordi Bayarri Dolz Audience Age 10-14 Audience Children / Juvenile Imprint Lerner Publishing Group Alternative 9781541582378 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
