Science Detectives by Editors of YES Magazine


Hikers in the Alps stumble over a body half buried in the ice. Who was he? How and when did he die? Murdered—5300 years ago! Learn how science detectives solved the mystery. Follow a geologist/scientist as he secretly hunts down diamonds in the Canadian North and makes himself rich. See a picture of the biggest jigsaw you could imagine—the attempted reconstruction of the Columbia space shuttle—and meet the people who put it together. 1600 dead, rotting vultures have a story to tell. Who knows how to listen? All this and more await you in this very exciting book of real-life detectives working in science.
