As important as science is in the

world today, with educators

and business leaders clamoring

for tomorrows experts in a

wide variety of fields, science still faces some

hurdles in getting students psyched. Scientists

in Action! is here to change that. By profiling

energetic, hands-on, action-packed scientific

careers that take experts out of the lab and into

the world, each volume will make scientists

into Indiana Jones (well, almost). Each book

has photos of the scientists in action, inspiring

stories of real-life scientists changing the

world, and ideas on how students can explore

each science as a career.

SCIENTISTS IN ACTION!

MATH & SCIENCE

WHO NEEDS LAB COATS? GRAB

YOUR PARKA, YOUR SWIM FINS,

AND YOUR HARD HAT AND JOIN

THE SCIENT ISTS IN ACT ION!

• This informative set immerses students in various

STEM-related careers, both familiar and lesser-known. After

a preliminary “Action!” chapter introduces readers to the

eld, each volume subsequently and thoroughly addresses

educational requirements (“The Scientists and Their

Science”), equipment (“Tools of the Trade”), and examples

(“Tales fromthe Field” and “Scientists in the News”).

Text-dependent questions and critical thinking activities

conclude each chapter.

• VERDICT:…this is first-rate nonfiction for educational

or recreational reading.
