Drawing Physics: 2,600 Years of Discovery from Thales to Higgs

This informative and engaging resource presents the history of physics over the past 2600 years. Through fifty-one topics, summarized in three to four pages and accompanied by historical drawings, the text covers the history of science and the major discoveries in physics from early astronomy to particle physics. Presented in a non-mathematical way, it focuses on the concepts behind each topic, allowing students without math knowledge to grasp the subject. A useful reference for the secondary classroom to encourage further research beyond the curriculum or to research the history of physics.
