The book.

A charming introduction to the hidden forces that drive the universe, by everyday analogies, with a touch of the surreal and a gentle sense of humour.

For children from 9 to 90!

A book full of inspiring stories in which the author links, seemingly effortlessly, everyday experiences to the science and technology behind them. The stories in the first part of the book are followed by a real hands-on part with many practical examples, and concluded with a mini encyclopaedia, in which the author inimitably explains the principles of electronics with childlike simplicity, along with more than 150 illuminating illustrations also created by the author. Children have the future and electronics play a huge role in that future. This book inspires children to think about science and electronics and invent things for themselves.
