Biografía

Isaac Asimov, known primarily for his science fiction stories, was also a scientist. In cooperation with the Senior Scholastic magazine, he composed this wonderful and fascinating work of historical nonfiction.

Twenty-six far-reaching discoveries and the twenty-nine scientists who made them—from Archimedes, who boasted he could move the world, to Goddard, who sent the first liquid-fuel rocket toward space.

These men of vision and genius set their sights beyond the known to bring about hold advances in scientific thinking and enlarge our knowledge of man and his environment.

Masterfully narrated by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti. This work is an inspiration to young and old alike. Who knew Thomas Alva Edison lost his hearing in one ear because he lost his balance hopping a train, and a trainman grabbed him by the ears to pull him onto the train?
