Did
you see how great scientists were inspired by little events?
Did
you observe how they used failure as a stepping stone to success?
Frankly
speaking, when I started this book, I was like revisiting old school days, days
when we were usually faced the difficulties about what subject to be opt, am I really
good at zoology or I should go with chemistry, I still remember those days when
I would wait for senior lecturers outside their cabin just to confirm is this
branch of science lead me somewhere?
And now
I read this remarkable book, how I wished it should have written before. Ah! No
regrets!
But this
would be a best gift ever that parents should provide to their kids. Such a fascinating
journey to explore the realm of science, most important thing about this book
is its simplicity. Srijan pal singh has written this extraordinary book in collaboration
with A P J Kalam Sir, our former president and well known author of “Wings of
Fire”. It didn’t seemed some kind of science seminar but it melts your curiosity
with appropriate answers plus it installs mind storming questions to know more
about science.
This
book is not written only for present scenario but with an idea of future
science which left you jaw-dropped. Kalam
sir shared his experiences related to different areas of science that literally
amazed me, and that question answer session is the best part to ignite your
brain, for instance
Why
do planes shake during flights? Is this turbulence dangerous?
How
is a humanoid different from a robot?
What
about viruses? How small are they? Are they alive?
How
can a pathologist defeat such clever viruses?
What
is dark energy and dark matter?
How were you inspired to pursue a career in space science?
And
many more..
Book
covers the perfect description about various zones of science as robotics,
aeronauts, paleontology, pathology and neuroscience. The clear path leads you
to a place where you no more deviated from your goal.
‘When you wish
upon a star
It does not matter
who you are’
The
book urges you to find your own little events and turn them into pillars of inspiration
so you can find a new fire within yourself. This fire will ignite new ideas,
new purposes and new faculties within you and enable you to achieve greatness.
