| Publisher Description: The Great Scientific Theories series explains what a scientific theory is and how it can be developed and tested, before going on to look at a key scientific theory in detail. Each book looks at historical controversies and what people believed before, tells the stories of the scientists who worked on each theory, including any opposition they faced, and examines how the theory was arrived at, how it was tested, and what impact the theory has had on our understanding of science today. |
