A fun filled book of experiments.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Explosive Experiments (Horrible Science) (Paperback)
The book is full of fun experiments. It covers all the aspects of science and includes guidelines for each of the experiments, it is also enjoyable to read and educational. The experiments include quizes after each section, to test your knowledge of the experiment covered. Overall, the book was very enjoyable and the experiments were very good. A good read all around.

This review refers to the 'SPECIAL' edition of this title.,

This review is from: Explosive Experiments (Horrible Science) (Paperback)
'Explosive Experiments gives you the red hot details of dodgy experiments that have set the world of science alight!
Follow the wobbly path of scientific discovery and find out..... which scientist blew up his Barbie in an experiment who tried, and failed, to get rid of his fingerprints with acid. how scientists tracked down the chemical cause of cheesy socks. You'll also have a chance to meet 'Horrible Science's' own team of oddball experts, and try some horribly exciting experiments. Find out how to make your own artificial sick....what you need to make the moon 'shrink'....and,........if you've got the nerve to stand under a bucket of water. - all in the name of science! Slightly more expensive than the regular 'Horrible Science` series, 'Explosive Experiments' is one of the 'Specials' and stands slightly higher at c 8.5" high. 192 pages, split over 8 chapters:- A testing time Murderous medical experiments Baffling brain experiments Nightmare nature experiments Curious chemistry experiments Frantic forces experiments Experiments with blasts and bangs Blazing light and electricity experiments with an introduction and an epilogue - An explosive tomorrow? Written in a variety of fonts, with the usual Nick Arnold entertaining style. Black and white illustrations/cartoons throughout, as well as 'Bet you never knew' fact-boxes, quizzes and 'Horrible Danger Warnings':- e.g.:- 'Kettle steam can scald you! Keep well away from the steam and get an adult to help you with this part of the experiment, otherwise your parents could get steamed up.' 'Science has never been so horrible!'

A Brilliantly Written Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Explosive Experiments (Horrible Science) (Paperback)
A book that makes you think and laugh at the same time, a very rare quality in a science book. Full of educational experiments that don't make you think your doing "school work". I have read many of his books but it never ceases to amaze me how intelligently funny they are.
