Review by Horn Book Review

This volume provides descriptions of technology middle graders will find familiar (cellphones) and/or appealing (Segways). For each subject, numerous sidebars and images are corralled into "Just the Facts" (overviews) and "Tell Me More" (deeper background) sections; each entry also includes "Try This!" experiments, goofy photographs, and diagrams of items. Sporadic profiles of scientists, entrepreneurs, and engineers are inserted throughout. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2019.
