Think Like A Scientist

The scientific method provides the framework for how scientists approach problems, develop hypotheses, test those ideas, and share their results. This series investigates a different step of the scientific method and shows readers how scientists think critically about problems to advance our understanding of nature, space, and ourselves. In addition to examples from the real world of various scientific fields, each book inspires students to apply these concepts and explore their own questions about the world around them. Readers will be scientists-in-training, ready for the classroom, and the universe at large.
