reviewed The science of Philip Pullman's His dark materials on February 13, 2010 The science of Philip Pullman's His dark materials
I like children's nonfiction books a lot. The facts are straight-forward and to the point and if you're still interested in the subject you can delve into heavier books later.
Anyway, this book is clearly for a younger audience yet covers topics like quantum physics. The book uses examples from Pullman's series, His Dark Materials, and shows how elements of the book you might have considered "magic" actually relate to science.
The book contains a glossary, index, and suggestions for further reading with an introduction from Pullman himself.
