For thousands of years, engineers have solved problems by designing and
building new things. This informative, fun-to-color book introduces kids
ages 8-12 to the many different worlds of engineering. Realistic
illustrations and easy-to-understand captions explain how civil
engineers build a bridge, how structural engineers erect a skyscraper,
how genetic engineers alter DNA, what environmental engineers do to
protect our planets, and how robotics and aerospace engineers attach a
mini-helicopter to a Mars robot explorer. It's the perfect book for the
next generation of STEM students.
