Neil Schlager, "Gale Science and its Times", 7 Volume Set

Description

This innovative 7-vol. set offers an exceptional, interdisciplinary approach to learning by integrating two important subjects: science and history. Built on the Gale Group's growing base of authoritative resources, Science and Its Times is informative, reliable and easy to use. The volumes are chronologically ordered from 2000 B.C. to the present, addressing a wide variety of scientific developments with explanations of underlying factors and their effects on politics, economics, culture and daily life.

Each volume is broken down into six chapters:

Life Sciences
Physical Sciences
Exploration
Medicine
Technology
Mathematics
Each chapter begins with a subject-specific chronology of events and an overview essay. The entries — more than 20 topical essays, 25 full biographies and 85 sketches of notable people in each volume — move forward through history, describing notable scientific discoveries and achievements along with their social and historical impact.

From the architecture and engineering of the ancient pyramids to inventions that led to industrial robots, the Xerox copier and nuclear weapons, Science and Its Times tells the whole story of science as a driving force that has shaped and changed the world. Approximately 150 images enhance the information in each volume, along with sidebars, introductory essays and summaries of relevant events that occurred in the previous era.
