Description
The Scientific Revolution is known as the time period when modern science was born. Without the people who made discoveries, theories, and inventions during this time, the world as we know it today would not exist. Readers are introduced to the figures, discoveries, and events that defined the Scientific Revolution through annotated quotes from historians and historical documents, primary sources, fact-filled sidebars, and a detailed timeline. As readers explore this essential social studies topic, they also learn the important connections that can be made between history and STEM, broadening their view of each topic.
