Uma agradável aventura através do conhecimento
Mark Miodownik nos conduz em uma viagem de conhecimento sobre a composição material e o comportamento de objetos do nosso dia-a-dia, como as cerâmicas, concreto, plásticos, elásticos, delícias como o chocolate e surpreendentes novos materiais ainda pouco conhecidos do público em geral; há curiosidades na área da cosmologia e da engenharia que nos possibilitou vivermos a vida moderna, tudo escrito numa linguagem simples e com pitadas de humor. Um valioso livro para os curiosos do mundo que nos cerca e além.

Interesting read
My 9 year old son and my husband equally got hooked to it. Explains the concepts nicely and helped my son in developing a liking for materials. It became our latest bedtime book :-)

Loved it
Fabulous read, by no means an I a scientist... Far from it, but this book is very interesting, informative and down right important. I teach elementary school and the information in this book is completely helpful and anecdotally relevant in my classroom. Loved it!!! Wish the hardcover was available.
