Teach the process of science through the excitement of discovery.
The Second Edition of Adam Frank’s groundbreaking book supports the mission of helping students become scientifically educated citizens. He shows students that the process of science is a human endeavour by introducing them, via interviews, to scientists from across the field. New Anatomy of a Discovery features help students visualise the excitement of discovery while Interactive Simulations ask students to engage in the scientific method by making observations, manipulating variables and answering questions. The accompanying award-winning videogame then asks students to apply what they’ve learned in a fun yet meaningful way.

Adam Frank is a professor of astrophysics at the University of Rochester. He is a co-founder of NPR’s 13.7: Cosmos and Culture blog and an on-air commentator for All Things Considered. He also served as the science consultant for Marvel Studio’s Dr. Strange. He lives in Rochester, New York.
