This is one of a series which examines the science that underlies objects in the world around us. The book focuses on floating machines, including canoes and racing yachts, jet-skis, hydrofoils, submersibles and lifeboats, and discusses how and why they work, each spread developing the information presented in the previous one. Simple experiments are included to give children a chance to see for themselves how the machines work.
