Practical science you can use every day, explained for high school learners.

An Introduction to Science by Bertha M. Clark offers a practical path to understanding how science helps with daily life.

• Explore practical projects the book uses to teach problem solving, measurement, and experimentation.
• Learn about tools, methods, and devices that were building blocks of early modern science education.
