Written as part of a novel experiment, editors Mark Lorch and Andy Miah hatched a plan to collect a critical mass of academics in a room and charged them with writing a popular science book, under the watchful eye of the general public at the Manchester Science Festival. The result is an enlightening look into the science behind colour and light, encompassing biology, chemistry and physics and including simple and fun “try this at home” ideas to illustrate the concepts covered. Drawing on the experience of some of the UK’s best science communicators, this book will appeal to anyone with an interest in science. Its pacey, witty and engaging tone provides illuminating insight into how and why we see the universe the way we do.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 207gContributor: Andy Miah (Edited by), Mark Lorch (Edited by)Genre: Science Nature & MathAuthor: Andy MiahRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
