The author argues that science cannot be taught but has to be learnt. Based on historical examples he shows that practicing science means putting one?s intellect into the understanding of simple questions like what, why, how and when events around you happen. The reader understands that the search for the cause and effect relationship of so called normal happenings is a very provocative experience and learning science leads one to it. This is underpinned by looking at everyday experiences and how they can help any lay-person learn science. The author also explains the methodology of science and discusses an integrated approach to science communication. Finally he elaborates on the influence and role of science in society. The book addresses interested general readers, teachers and science communicators. 410 0$aPhysics and Astronomy Series 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aPhysics$xHistory 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aGravitation 606 $aTeaching 606 $aScience Education 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aHistory of Physics and Astronomy 606 $aAstronomy, Cosmology and Space Sciences 606 $aGravitational Physics 606 $aDidactics and Teaching Methodology 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aPhysics$xHistory. 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aGravitation. 615 0$aTeaching. 615 14$aScience Education. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistory of Physics and Astronomy. 615 24$aAstronomy, Cosmology and Space Sciences. 615 24$aGravitational Physics. 615 24$aDidactics and Teaching Methodology. 676 $a507.1 676 $a507.1 700 $aPrasanna$b A.
