{"product_id":"9781422235607","title":"Inventors (Black Achievement in Science Series)","description":"\u003cp\u003eRevolutionary War-era inventor Benjamin Banneker gets most of the headlines, but the story of invention by black scientists certainly did not stop there. Throughout recent centuries-and perhaps never more so than today-brilliant and dedicated creative people of African heritage are helping to make our world better and safer with their inventions. From food refrigeration to high-tech electronics, from closed-circuit TV to 3-D glasses, from rocket science-to computers-all these areas and more are part of the inspiring stories in this book. Great scientific achievements, innovations, and inventions often have been recorded by men and women of color, and this series celebrates their work and lives, specialty by specialty. Their stories can inspire students of today to pursue their own dreams of science success. In a perfect world, we, like science, would not see color. Until then, we celebrate and inspire with stories of Buck Achievement in Science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mason Crest Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054170194160,"sku":"9781422235607","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781422235607_p0.jpg?v=1763743923","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781422235607","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
