I don't, however, have a whole lot of time to do the semi-in-depth book reviews that I would like to do. Are there any folks out there who might be interested in helping out and writing any sort of review of one of your favorite books with a material science connection, something you might already have read and are using in your classroom, perhaps? Or maybe there's a book you particularly enjoyed and that has some material science content but haven't found how to use in the classroom.
I already have a partial list of books that I would like to review (but would be very much willing to add in new ones):
- The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean
- Eight Amazing Engineering Stories by Bill Hammack
- The Backyard Blacksmith by Lorelei Sims
- The Toaster Project by Thomas Thwaites
- Serendipity: accidental discoveries in science by Royston Roberts
- Napoleon's Buttons by Penny Le Couteur
- Bulletproof Feathers: how science uses nature's secrets to design cutting-edge technology by Robert Allen
- Teaching General Chemistry: a materials science companion by Arthur Ellis, et al
- Stuff: Materials World by Ivan Amato
- Materials in Art and Technology by Rohit Trivedi
