Book ID/图书代码: 12580017C00195
English Summary/英文概要: Imagine a world without light. What would it be like? Dark, cold, and lifeless! In Explore Light and Optics! With 25 Great Projects, readers ages 7 through 10 find out why light is so important to our world. We use light to communicate. Because of light, there are natural phenomena such as rainbows and the auroras. And it’s light that provides living things with the energy they need to exist.
In Explore Light and Optics!, readers learn how light travels, how the eye works, and why we can see objects. They read about optical inventions that changed the world, including microscopes, telescopes, and cameras. Kids are introduced to modern inventions such as lasers, solar planes, and the hundreds of thousands of miles of fiber optics that make it possible to transmit data all over the world.
Through projects ranging from making a spectroscope and concocting invisible ink to creating a periscope and experimenting with lenses, children discover how light can be bent, bounced, and broken. Fun facts, jokes, cartoon illustrations and links to online primary sources spark an interest in the fascinating role light plays in our lives from the sun shining overhead to the cellphone in our back pocket.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 想象一个没有光的世界。那会是什么样子?黑暗,寒冷,毫无生气的!探索光和光学!在25个伟大的项目中,7到10岁的读者会发现为什么光对我们的世界如此重要。我们用光来沟通。因为光,有一些自然现象,如彩虹和极光。它是一盏灯,它能提供生命所需的能量。
探索光和光学!读者可以了解光的传播方式,眼睛的工作原理,以及为什么我们可以看到物体。他们阅读了一些改变世界的光学发明,包括显微镜、望远镜和照相机。孩子们被介绍给现代发明,如激光,太阳能飞机,以及成千上万英里的光纤,这些都可以使世界各地的数据传输成为可能。
通过各种项目,从制作一个分光镜,到制作隐形墨水,到创建一个潜望镜,再到镜片的实验,孩子们发现光是如何弯曲、反弹和破碎的。有趣的事实、笑话、卡通插图以及与网络第一手来源的链接,激发了人们对我们生活中的精彩角色的兴趣,从阳光的照射到我们的后口袋里的手机。(WYL)

"Science fans have a new fun resource for planning projects. . . Teachers at all levels can make use of this new book to infuse some action and excitement into science lessons on light and optics. Recommended"
National Science Teachers Association RECOMMENDS
"Students will be able to use this introductory text to understand and explore the field of light and optics. . . Activities immediately follow each chapter to reinforce key ideas. One activity in particular stands out for its uniqueness: using processed cheese slices and a microwave to measure the speed of light. . . With the wide variety of topics covered, students are able to see the interconnectedness of our technology and hobbies and contemplate the different careers that involve light and optics."
Samuel L. Nerenberg, Doctoral Candidate of Optical Sciences
“ An excellent introductory text for children to the field of optics. It provides a balance between scientific concept and history presented at an appropriate level. . . "
