 Recipes for Science Logo

Recipes for Science is a collection of demonstrations used by Science Theatre during its stage show and hands on events. It was written by the members of Science Theatre, and was edited and compiled by Jennifer Discenna. Recipes for Science covers many of Science Theatre's physics demonstrations. It also includes scripts for six stage shows, a section on common misconceptions and a listing of various catalogs where the items needed for the demonstrations can be obtained. The demonstrations can be made in-house or purchased.
This project was funded by a grant from the American Institute of Physics

We are currently out of copies of Recipes for Science.  When we get more in, we will let you know.
