Around the World in 80 Experiments

More than a hundred years ago, the famous science fiction writer Jules Verne sent the heroes of his novel "Around the World in 80 Days" - Phileas Fogg and Detective Fix - on a round-the-world journey. In our time, the... great-grandchildren of the novel's characters - twins Fogg and Fix Junior with their faithful dog Passpartout - decided to repeat this journey. Together, you will visit different countries, get acquainted with the brilliant ideas and inventions of the past and present, and conduct 80 fascinating scientific experiments.
In twenty-two chapters of this book, you will learn about the geographical features and natural wealth of various countries, the customs and traditions of their peoples, as well as the scientific, technical, and other achievements of the past and present. Each chapter contains 4 experiments of varying complexity that illustrate the narrative, allowing you to visually reproduce a volcanic eruption or tsunami, understand tectonic plate movements, learn how a harp or a loom works, master tying maritime knots, or prepare an English breakfast. The conclusions and observations from these experiments can later be used in lessons on chemistry, physics, and mathematics.
