(4) 4-6 Think like a Scientist series. Featuring an integrated approach to physics and chemistry, the four chapters here cover varied subtopics, from the Curies' radioactive research to recent knuckleball studies. Color photos--often full-page versos--are occasionally randomly placed. Captions and biographical sketches of classic and contemporary scientists, such as Galileo and Richard Crooks, are engaging, but sources are skimpy at best. Some small experiments are suggested. Websites. Bib., glos., ind.
