PRODUCT DETAILS
Description
A comprehensive reference to understand the units of measurement underpinning our lives. From amps and ohms, moles and isotopes, to parsecs and the Richter scale: discover the workings of scales of measurement in meteorology, geology, music, light, engineering, physics, and more. Just how much is a ‘pinch’? How many roods are there in a hectare? And how many erlangs are you using for an hour’s chat on the telephone? Fact-packed sections define and explain hundreds of terms, words and measures, from historical usage to cutting-edge science. With colourful illustrations and diagrams, concise but clear explanations with eye-opening stories from the history of science along with the way.
