Description

|
|
|
For more than 35 years NPR science correspondent and television journalist Ira Flatow has interviewed top scientists and researchers on such programs as his "Science Friday" spot on NPR's Talk of the Nation. In this book he shares revelations from those conversations, including the latest on nanotechnology, space travel, global warming, alternative energies, stem cell research, and using the universe as a "super supercomputer." Flatow also explores his favorite topic of the science of everyday life with explanations on why the shower curtain sticks to you, the real story of why airplanes fly, and much more.
