Think of the rainbow, a sunset on the sea, a game of shadows. Humans have always used light for their own needs, from cooking food to illuminating a room. However, light is not only limited to what we can see with our eyes. The invisible part of the electromagnetic spectrum is broad and dynamic. This book outlines the mysteries and wonders of electromagnetism, heat, and light. It also covers the history of our scientific understanding of light. The dark as well as the bright sides of light are fully explored in these pages, from their impact on our world to their use in cutting-edge technologies in a variety of fields. Numerous full-color images and drawings complement the text, and light phenomena are explained in a simple and engaging way. 410 0$aAstronomers' Universe,$x1614-659X 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aHistory 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 676 $a509 676 $a520 676 $a535.2 676 $a537.6 700 $aBisi$b Olmes$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792807 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300436603321 996 $aVisible and Invisible$91773042 997 $aUNINA
