Science in Short Chapters

by W. Mattieu Williams

This collection of essays by W. Mattieu Williams covers a wide range of scientific topics, from astronomy and physics to biology and geology. Williams wrote these essays with the general reader in mind, and he avoided technical jargon in favor of clear and concise language. As a result, these essays are still accessible to readers today, even though some of the scientific ideas they contain have been superseded by more recent research.
