Acclaimed science writers Bryan Bunch and Jenny Tesar have created a wonderful 4-volume set that places every entry within the context of history. The lives and achievements of everyone from Aristotle to Vladimir Zworykin (inventor of the television camera and tube) are explained here, along with detailed entries on inventions and developments that changed the course of human history. Thematic discussion of broad topics--such as airplanes, heat, and motion--are presented in a format that clearly shows the development of each idea, and its connection to the work that came before and after.
