This activity-based series encourages the reader to explore simple design and technology concepts and try them out in practical projects. Each book explains the basic principles of the subject, starting with simple concepts of fundamental design, such as those found in nature, and working through to advanced modern technology. Each section includes a practical project or experiment to illustrate the design principles involved. Colour illustrations explain in detail the practical projects, while colour photographs are widely used to enhance the main text. Focusing on water transport, this book examines a variety of forms such as dug-out canoes, nuclear-powered submarines and amphibious craft. It describes the different materials, methods of construction and the various ways in which the craft are powered.
