From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Grade 5-8 In a clear, straightforward text, information about scientific innovations in China from around 1500 b.c. to the mid-16th Century is presented. The top ics covered are as much technological as scientific, and cosmology is included as well. The numerous and appropriately- placed black-and-white illustrations serve to enhance the text. They also help to break it upan aid it badly needs, as the writing style is extremely dry. Plea sure or interest reading this is not, but it will prove a useful resource for reports. It contains a brief glossary and index, and a good bibliography in which its only real competitorFrank Ross' Oracle Bones, Stars and Wheelbarrows (Houghton, 1982)is listed. For collec tions, especially in schools, without Ross' book, this is a reasonable addi tion. Ann Welton, Lake Dollof Ele mentary School, Auburn, Wash.
