Transport. Cars, Trains, Ships, Airplanes

The book presents various types of transport — an indispensable assistant to humans since ancient times, when goods and passengers were moved to their destination on primitive carts pulled by animals or on simple boats, at best equipped with a... single sail. However, over time, people's needs for cargo transportation grew: trade developed actively, numerous expeditions were sent to explore uncharted lands, and finally, in the 18th-19th centuries, the industrial revolution took place. As a result, transport changed beyond recognition! Today, there are hundreds of its types: passenger, cargo, and special vehicles, motorcycles and snowmobiles, buses, trolleybuses, trams and trains, passenger and cargo ships, airliners — the list goes on and on. Modern means of transportation can deliver people or goods to any point on Earth in the shortest possible time. And, apparently, this is still far from the limit of their capabilities. Who knows, maybe very soon humans will embark on journeys to other planets!
Young readers can explore all existing types of transport today with the help of augmented reality technologies used in this edition, allowing interaction with the presented models in 4D format: to see them in motion and volume, as well as listen to interesting and educational information about them.
For middle and high school age.
