Overview
Not so long ago, if a person needed to add up a complicated set of numbers, a pencil and paper had to be close at hand. Now, calculators and computers do the work. Until recently, if a person lost a leg in an accident, the person learned to live with one leg. Now, scientists have created prosthetics that, with the aid of computer science, "think" like our brains - and think so well that, with them, people can and have run marathons. The titles - sure to appeal to young readers - in Cool Science explore the amazing advances science has made in artificial intelligence, crime solving, physical and mental diseases, and even in sports.
