The Academic’s Support Kit
48
 
 
The Academic’s Support KitThe Kit comprises six books (6 volumes) of 765 pages. There is no strict order in which they should be read, but this one is probably as good as any – except that you might read Building your Academic Career both first and last.
1. Building your Academic Career encourages you to take a proactive approach to getting what you want out of academic work whilst being a good colleague.
2. Getting Started on Research is for people in the earlier stages of development as a researcher.
3. Writing for Publication.
4. Teaching and Supervision looks at issues you may face both in teaching undergraduates and in the supervision of graduate research students.
5. Winning and Managing Research Funding explains how generic university research funding mechanisms work so that you will be better equipped to navigate your way through the financial maze associated with various funding sources.
6. Building Networks addresses perhaps the most slippery of topics, but also one of the most fundamental.

Amazing Leonardo da Vinci Inventions You Can Build Yourself
77
 
 
Amazing Leonardo da Vinci Inventions You Can Build YourselfFrom armored tanks and gliders to "plastic glass" and drawing machines, this interactive book explores the incredible mind of Leonardo da Vinci through hands-on building projects and activities. Most of Leonardo's inventions were never made in his lifetime and remained sketches in his famous notebooks; kids examine some of these original sketches and learn about the models he made of his inventions. From there they delve into detailed step-by-step instructions, diagrams, and templates for each project, which are interspersed with historical facts, biographical anecdotes, and trivia. Most of the building can be done using simple household supplies: construction paper, tape, markers, glue, cardboard tubes, aluminum foil, and cardboard boxes. Background about the Renaissance as a period of remarkable achievement in art and science appears throughout the book.
