The book also includes
                feature lessons that

                show you how Science
                is used in the world                       The Feature lesson is woven throughout each

                around you. We hope                        grade, encouraging you to consider real-world
                that you enjoy these                       application of Science across four key areas:
                pages as well as being                     careers, ethics, society and the environment.
