In easy-to-understand terms, the book introduces novices to the basics of current theory by exploring the five major scientific disciplines and the fundamental theory behind each. For physics, its the model of the atom. For chemistry, the periodic law. For astronomy, the big bang. For earth science, plate tectonics. And for biology, evolution. After explaining the basics, the authors give a simple overview of how these theories relate to each other to convey a complete picture of todays world. Includes a chapter on risk/benefit analysis with examples of how scientific ideas and methods are use in real life.
