Who Invented the Lightbulb? A Quiz Deck of Canadian Inventions Knowledge Cards
Product Description
Many Canadian inventions--the lightbulb, the quartz clock, and kerosene, to name just a few--have long been household names or--like IMAX cinema and the Java programming language--have recently gained renown. Other developments from Canada have quietly revolutionized our world (insulin therapy, the cardiac pacemaker, the electron microscope, the first universal timekeeping method), and an intriguing few remain little known, such as the Franks Flying Suit, precursor to the space suits worn by astronauts, and an experimental instrument that generates sound from movement. In Q&A format, the 48 cards in this fun and fascinating deck explore these stories and more.
