The Body

After reading this book you will know what you don't know. You, actually, will understand how little we understand about human body, one of the most complex manifestations of evolution that we have witnessed. Starting from the tiny albeit significant cell, it divides numerous times, but remains more or less united, to give you a body to house yourself. The various parts of this mysterious structure works untiringly for you well being but curiously we take it all for granted. Maybe, after going through this book, you will appreciate the various mechanisms of the human body that defends you from all sorts of foreign invasions and remains unappreciated for the better part of their lives. This book is not only how the bodies function but it also gives a brief history of the human understanding of the biology of their bodies. Laced with endearing humour throughout, the author once more gives a fascinating insight of the subject that he documents which will help the layman in understanding what happens the next time anything physiologically happens.

George's Secret Key To The Universe

One of the fascinating science based fictions I have ever read since the Tompkins series. Basically a book for astronomy enthusiasts, it can motivate the ordinary to get a taste of the basics.
An intergalactic adventure awaits George, whose scientific ambitions had been always snubbed down by his environment conscious parents. It was about to change when his pig breaks boundaries to poke into the next door neighbours. The mysteries of the universe awaits to be unfolded soon as did the mystery of their neighbours and their computer. As George stumbles on the marvels of the universe by the chance meeting, the crooked forces are also in the move, thwarting the aims of the noble minds while trying to use science for petty advantages.
Written lucidly by the brilliant Stephen Hawking and his scientist daughter Lucy Hawking with the charming illustrations of Garry Parsons, this book, once recommended by my father, had satisfied both his son and his grandson with its facts of science presented in the package of fiction with the touch of suspense to appeal the readers of varied ages.
