yer my schools doin on Giant's Shoulders too ...

from what iunderstand its all about the scientists and their imaginative journey of discovery because its a bit hard to invent if you dont have an imagination... go with that sorry im not much help i jus picked up the book a couple days ago

 

[sweetcandeeh]

The idea of imaginative journeys in OGS the scientists i.e Newton, Freud etc. are inspired by various triggers then speculating upon the ideas...
no only do the scientists travel upon the journey but the audience, the quests and brag himself
its hard to explain prehaps study guides may help try the excel books

yeh my school is doing On Giant's Shoulders too. It is an imaginative journey text, you just have to read it and you will eventually understand how it relates. It discusses how each of the scientists have discovered their own ideas through the inspiration and speculation of previous scientists. Try to see it as the imaginative journey that the scientists have taken as well as Melvyn Bragg and the many other opinions of varoius people Bragg has interviewed,
