From sound effects in video games and movies to surround-sound theatres, this fact-filled book explores the many ways audio engineers apply the science of sound. Readers will explore how sound travels and the characteristics of sound waves. Readers will also learn how to combine their understanding of sound science and the engineering design process to tackle a design challenge of their own. From Booklist: Books in the Engineering in Action series provide broad introductions to their respective fields in a colorfully illustrated, large-format package. A typical, rather crowded double-page spread presents a specified topic and illustrates it with two or three small photos. (Example: one ongoing theme running through many of the books is an engineer’s approach to problem solving and collaborating on projects.) The main text is augmented with related information in boxes designed to look like yellow sticky notes. While job possibilities in the field are discussed, educational requirements for various careers are not. Each book includes a design challenge that leads readers through the steps of a project such as creating a sound track, fire extinguisher, desalination device, or periscope. Audio tackles the science of sound and hearing, the differences between analog and digital signals, and the varied work of audio engineers. Solid information for engineering-minded students. Grades 5-8. --Carolyn Phelan "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

Examines how chemical engineers combine the science of chemistry with the engineering design process to develop products used in daily life such as cleaning supplies, fuels, and medicines. From Booklist: Books in the Engineering in Action series provide broad introductions to their respective fields in a colorfully illustrated, large-format package. A typical, rather crowded double-page spread presents a specified topic and illustrates it with two or three small photos. (Example: one ongoing theme running through many of the books is an engineer’s approach to problem solving and collaborating on projects.)

Children will unravel the secrets of science with simple experiments using easy-to-find ingredients. In this title in the Let's Experiment! series, children are accompanied by two characters: Professor Albert, who will teach them the scientific explanation behind each experiment, and Greg the Robot, who will guide them in their practice. They'll have a ton of fun learning how to make slime, how rust forms, what creates mold, and much more! For each experiment there is also a "mess-o-meter" for parents to know how messy the experiment can be, as well as the level of difficulty.

Discusses the properties of matter and describes how to tell the difference between materials that absorb liquid and those that repel it. From School Library Journal: K-Gr 1—These introductions to science cover the most basic of information in ways that young readers will find easy and fun. Colorful designs with a large, readable font and tons of fun photos featuring young children in action are easy on the eyes, while the content is broken down into bite-size portions, ideal for those new to such concepts as density or absorpency. The titles all start off the same way: with a brief definition of "matter," "mass," and "property." Concise explanations ("Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass"; "Mass is the amount of material in an object") are ideal for readers with a limited science background. Short and sweet, these are solid overviews. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

Human activities have a huge impact on the Earth. Environmental engineers apply traditional engineering practices to help improve and prevent damage from humans and the waste we create to ecosystems and our environment. Readers will learn about how environmental engineering began, and the many processes environmental engineers apply to find sustainable solutions to problems. Real-life examples help students understand key concepts related to this important profession. From Booklist: Books in the Engineering in Action series provide broad introductions to their respective fields in a colorfully illustrated, large-format package. A typical, rather crowded double-page spread presents a specified topic and illustrates it with two or three small photos. (Example: one ongoing theme running through many of the books is an engineer’s approach to problem solving and collaborating on projects.) The main text is augmented with related information in boxes designed to look like yellow sticky notes. While job possibilities in the field are discussed, educational requirements for various careers are not. Each book includes a design challenge that leads readers through the steps of a project such as creating a sound track, fire extinguisher, desalination device, or periscope. Environmental surveys this growing field and discusses matters such as alternative energy sources and waste management. Besides discussing light and vision, Optical looks at significant optical advances of the past (the Fresnel lens, the laser) as well as technologies in development now. Solid information for engineering-minded students. Grades 5-8. --Carolyn Phelan "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
