Ladies I am looking to possibly purchase this book in the
Story of Science series to go along with the milstones in science pack .
Our library has absolutely none of Hakim's books so I have no idea if these science ones are any good. I've heard good things about the history books so hoping the same goes for the science series.
If not perhaps you might have suggestions for books that would go along with the Thames & Kosmos Milstones in Science
Thanks so much
Rox

Hi Roxie,

Regarding Joy Hakim, I just thought I'd share a few reviews, so you can make up your own mind:

Elizabeth Yank reviewed "The Story of US"

And this review

Mary Daly reviewed the Science at Love2Learn here and here.

MacBeth has a review of it in this older thread - The Story of Science?. I place a lot of weight on MacBeth's reviews.

You know I'm still a bit amiss weather to try this or not I may try the first book and give it a shot . I know the history series I first heard of it via the CCM reading lists many yrs ago and it still listed there in history resources so it can't be all that horrid .
In the end I guess it is just a go with what you feel suits your family .

My ds11 really enjoys the Hakim Science books. We got the student quest book to go along with it.
