Why book science made simple?
"Their consistent, enthusiastic and imaginative promotion at all levels in schools must have made at least as great a contribution to young people as all the BBC broadcasts on engineering. They may be small, they may be young, but my goodness they are making a difference."
Our patron Adam Hart-Davis
