Excellent reading for elementary age and older. Using the books in this series for home schooling - students are eager to read them and share what they've learned. Manner of writing paints vivid pictures of the characters and their environments, of the economic and social structures of that time period, and the far-reaching effects of the main character's works.
This story is one of tragedy, humility and selflessness. I especially enjoyed this time when science was exploding with curiousity and discovery. Many of the physical laws we know today were documented here.Yea...liked this book much and Robert Boyle.
This book was hard to put down. It is well-written and engaging. I recommend this for young adults and adults alike. This is a very interesting piece of Christian history as well as the history of science.
An outstand biography of a famous scientist. Entertainingly written, not too wordy. Short enough to interest weak readers.
