STEM subjects are where the future's at. Now you can be a science superstar with this colorful practice book. Are you a budding Einstein? Or do you need a little more help to avoid falling behind in science class? DK's How to be Good at Science, Technology, and Engineering course book for children aged 7-14 now has two accompanying workbooks: Workbook 1 covers ages 7-11 and Workbook 2 covers ages 11-14. These workbooks will help to cement everything you need to know about "STE" subjects through practice questions and practical exercises. Easy-to-follow instructions allow you to try out what you've studied, helping you understand what you've learned in school or giving extra revision practice before that important test. Workbook 2 is aimed at children aged 11-14 (Grades 6, 7, and 8 in the US), and covers all the key areas of the school curriculum for this level, including genes and DNA, atoms and molecules, chemical reactions, the periodic table, heat transfer, electricity and magnetism

The wonders of engineering revealed--by the inspirational female engineer behind The Shard, Western Europe's tallest building.While our cities are full of incredible engineering feats, most of us live with little idea of what goes into creating the built environment, let alone how a new building goes up, what it is constructed upon, or how it remains standing.In Built, star structural engineer Roma Agrawal explains how construction has evolved from the mud huts of our ancestors to skyscrapers of steel that reach into the sky. She unearths how humans have tunneled through solid mountains; how we've walked across the widest of rivers, and tamed nature's precious water resources. She tells vivid tales of the visionaries who created the groundbreaking materials used to build the Pantheon and the Eiffel Tower; and explains how careful engineering can minimize tragedies like the collapse of the Quebec Bridge. Interweaving science, history, illustrations, and personal stories, Built offers a
