Win 1 of 3 ‘That’s Life’ books by Professor Robert Winston

How did life begin? Who’s at the top of the food chain? What are the weirdest life forms on earth?

That’s Life is the latest title in DK’s award-winning science series that includes What Makes Me Me? Can You Feel the Force? and What Goes on in My Head? Professor Robert Winston bursts open the biology of our living world to reveal the intriguing secrets of everything under the sun.

For your chance to win one of these books, answer the simple question below in our dedicated competition page ((USE ONLY THIS DEDICATED PAGE – DO NOT SEND MESSAGES AND DO NOT POST MESSAGES ON THE WEBSITE OR ON THIS PAGE AS THE ENTRY WON’T BE VALID) https://londonmumsmagazine.com/competition-area. The question is: ‘Which TV series featuring Professor Winston won 3 BAFTAs?’ The deadline to enter is 30th April 2012.

From the very big to the microscopic, That’s life explores the world around us, from the beginning of life, to evolution, ecosystems and life cycles as well as the features and characteristics of the main players in the animal kingdom. Full of fascinating facts and lively texts the book also includes vibrant graphics and pictures. Find out what it takes to survive on Earth, from finding a home, getting on with the neighbours and protecting what’s yours, to the sneaky tactics that some species use to protect their own way of life.

More than just a reference book, That’s Life tackles basic biological principles and covers key topics on the biology curriculum such as ecology, food webs and other nutrient cycles. This book brings biology to life and offers an understanding of the mechanisms that support and sustain life, leaving no question unanswered for budding biologists.

Lavishly illustrated with images, That’s Life is a visual feast packed with explanatory diagrams and photography. Scientific ideas that might seem intimidating in a textbook are stripped to the bare bones, brought to life, and made fun and accessible to help children understand how the world around them works, and their place in it.

THE AUTHOR:

Professor Lord Robert Winston belongs to that rare breed of scientists who combine academic brilliance with charisma and a flair for communication. His TV appearances have made him a household name. His BBC TV series include Child of Our Time, Making Babies, The Secret Life of Twins, Superhuman, Your Life in Their Hands,
Human Instinct, and the Human Body, which won three BAFTAs.

Robert Winston’s enthusiasm for communicating science has seen him riding rollercoasters, standing naked in igloos, drinking himself into a stupor, and putting his own sperm under the microscope. A winner of the Royal Society’s prestigious Michael Faraday Gold Award, he was made a life peer in 1995. In 2005, Robert won the Aventis Junior Prize for Science Books for his best-selling DK book, What Makes Me Me. His follow up book, It’s Elementary, also made it onto the shortlist for the Aventis Junior Prize for Science Books.
