FORMAT Board Books LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Ages 0 to 3 years General Relativity for Babies by Chris Ferrie is a simple introduction to Einsteins crowning achievement. Baby will learn how mass warps space-time and how spinning black holes can send ripples of gravitational waves through space. With Newtons laws, we can do simple things like predict where a thrown ball will land all the way to complicated things like landing a man on the moon. And now baby will know them too! This is the first in a series of books designed to stimulate your baby and introduce them to the world of science. Also coming in May are: Newtonian Physics for Babies Rocket Science for Babies Quantum Physics for Babies Author Biography CHRIS FERRIE is an award-winning physicist and is the senior lecturer for Quantum Software and Information at the University of Technology Sydney. He has a Masters in Applied Mathematics, BMath in Mathematical Physics and a PhD in Applied Mathematics. He lives in Australia with his wife and children. He believes it is never too early to introduce small children to big ideas. Review " Physicist and father Chris Ferrie knows its never too soon to learn Newtons three laws of motion or Einsteins theory of general relativity. His board books are illustrated with eye-catching graphics for baby geniuses and written with a tongue in cheek humour for their adult friends, who might also learn a thing or two about aerospace engineering." - Plenty Magazine "This series is entirely age-appropriate and baby-accessible, featuring bright colors and simple sentence structure; its just that instead of teaching words like "hippopotamus" they teach words like "electron." A wonderful way to help stimulate interest in math and science from an extremely early age, the Baby University series is highly recommended, especially for library collections intended for pre-Kindergarten children." - Midwest Book Review " Whether youre expecting an amazing bundle of joy, or already have one or more, these new books by Chris Ferrie are perfect" - Kellys Thoughts on Things "A great way to introduce young children to important ideas! General Relativity for Babies gives understandable explanations for big ideas while building foundational vocabulary about general relativity. My little guy was very intrigued by this board book! " - iHeartLiteracy "In this board book series, Ferrie makes his knowledge accessible to the youngest of readers--and probably some adults, too... the subject material will certainly be enjoyable for trendy caretakers to read aloud. (And the pictures of babies chewing on the covers are going to be #instaworthy.)" - Shelf Awareness for Readers " Lively explorations of physics, technology, and space." - School Library Journal Promotional It only takes a small spark to ignite a childs mind.
