Am I an astronomer? Am I a botanist? Am I a dendrologist? Scientists from A to Z, an interactive alphabet book written in a question and answer format, will inspire children to see themselves as scientists. Because this book features photographs of children engaged in everyday scientific activities, young readers will be empowered by the idea that they don't have to be"grown-ups" to be scientists. As readers answer the questions posed by each scientist in the book and learn that scientists are more than wild-haired men in white coats, they will understand there are many fields of science. Children will learn that when they wonder and ask questions about the natural world, they are already scientists! Scientists from A to Z is essential for elementary classrooms and is perfect for introducing the concept of what a scientist is to young readers.

A to Z of Physicists, Updated Edition focuses not only on the lives and personalities of those profiled, but also on their research and contributions to the field. A fascinating and important element of this work is the attention paid to the obstacles that minority physicists had to overcome to reach their personal and professional goals.

A to Z of Physicists, Updated Edition features more than 150 entries and 51 black-and-white photographs. Culturally inclusive and spanning the whole range of physicists from ancient times to the present day, this is an ideal resource for students and general readers interested in the history of physics or the significant aspects of the personal and professional lives of important physicists.

From ancient times to the present day, scientifically inclined women in many cultures have had to battle against the traditional belief that men are more cognitively adept than women. At times throughout history, women were persecuted for their attempts to break down traditional gender barriers. Today, women scientists and mathematicians must continue to defend the quality of their work and demand the respect they deserve in the mathematical and scientific communities.A to Z of Women in Science and Math, Revised Edition profiles 195 women who fought against these stereotypes throughout history and all over the world to forge new discoveries and theories that would eventually change the way we view science. This thoroughly revised book updates the story of each individual to the present day and features 38 new profiles. Among the profiles included are those of chemists, astronomers, geologists, environmental scientists, and a range of other professions and careers. In addition, new photographs have been added, and the bibliography has been updated. Subject indexes allow the reader to search by such professions as microbiology and paleontology.Additional subject indexes organize individuals by country of birth, country of major scientific activity, and year of birth.
