The leather-bound book "Entertaining Physics" by Yakov Perelman
The collection includes three books by the remarkable popularizer of science Yakov Isidorovich Perelman (1882-1942) — both parts of "Entertaining Physics" and "Entertaining Mechanics". These works introduce to the world of scientific knowledge, help to instill in the reader a taste for the study of exact sciences, arouse interest in independent creative pursuits.
478 drawings in these books were executed (in close contact with Perelman himself) by Yuri (Georgy), a staff artist at the Leningrad publishing house Vremya Dmitrievich Skaldin (1891-1951), the younger brother of the writer Alexei Dmitrievich Skaldin, who was able to perfectly illustrate the most complex scientific phenomena and experiments.
