Eureka! The Story of Archimedes

To determine the volume of any object, even the most intricate shape, by immersing it in a liquid. To count all the grains of sand in the Universe. And even to overturn the Earth — if only there were a... "fulcrum". The great ancient Greek mechanic, mathematician, and physicist Archimedes knew how to do all this. This story is about him, the time in which he lived, and the amazing mechanisms he invented, which we still use every day.
