The electrifying biography of innovative scientist Benjamin Franklin is the perfect addition to this outstanding series!
Benjamin Franklin is a famous colonial inventor and multitasker who may be best remembered as one of America’s Founding Fathers. But he was also a “natural philosopher” (the term for scientists back in the 1700s), whose experiments led to important discoveries about the nature of electricity—including his famous demonstration that electricity and lightning were one and the same. In a fantastic addition to the much-lauded Giants of Science series, this biography sheds new light on the man who considered science his true calling in life.


Praise for the Giants of Science series:

“With an inviting, conversational narrative, this series launches with an impressive start.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review of Leonardo da Vinci
 
“The second title in Krull’s Giants of Science series meets, and perhaps even exceeds, expectations set by the debut, Leonardo da Vinci. Krull and Newton are a match made in heaven….” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, starred review of Isaac Newton
 
“ Another standout in a uniformly stellar series.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review of Albert Einstein

“An illuminating, humanizing portrait”—Booklist, starred review of Charles Darwin

“Krull presents another top-notch scientific biography in the outstanding Giants of Science series.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review of Marie Curie
 
“Krull lives up to the promise of the first two entries in her Giants of Science series with this lucid and thoughtful examination of Freud’s life, work, and legacy.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review of Sigmund Freud

Looks promising… but I haven’t built it yet 🛠📚
Color: White, Size: 9.3 D x 19.5 W x 41.8 H in
I haven’t actually assembled this 7-cube Amazon Basics bookcase yet, so I can’t comment on durability or stability. That said, everything arrived in good condition, the materials look solid, and the pre-drilled holes and pieces seem well-made. From first impressions alone, it seems like a quality piece that would fit nicely in a home or office space. I’m leaving a tentative rating based on appearance and packaging, but I’ll update if assembly goes smoothly or if I discover any issues. Pros: Materials look sturdy and well-made Pre-drilled holes and pieces seem accurate Sleek, simple design fits most rooms Good size for home or office storage Cons: Haven’t assembled it yet, so can’t comment on actual stability Star rating might change once it’s built and in use Verdict: Promising. Appears to be a quality cube organizer — I’ll update once I assemble it to confirm if it lives up to the look.

Anyone with multiple monitors should buy this
I have been wanting something like this for years. I use three monitors, and keeping them all aligned is impossible. I've considered using tape, but that seems like it would lead to a sticky mess and it would never hold well. I imagined some solution with magnets, but never came up with anything that I thought I could implement myself. As soon as I saw this product, I was ordered two sets. I knew that this was either going to be a revolution, or a huge disappointment. It was not a disappointment. Installation is simple as can be, clean off your monitor back with some alcohol wipes (they should consider including some, would be a nice touch). For my screens, alignment was super easy because they have really square corners so I just stuck my aligners right at the corners and it worked great. For a screen with a curved back or something more geometric you probably want to get the screens in place first, then stick both parts at the same time. Either way, they stuck really well and the pads are flexible so they would work on a curved back just as well as flat. The brackets also have a locking part that allows you to slide them side to side a bit giving you more flexibility in mounting, and then you can lock them down once everything is lined up so they hold nice and firm. I also managed to screw up and put the wrong part on the wrong side, but luckily if you unlock the bracket you can slide the main part off of the adhesive part completely, so I was able to simply swap the two main parts without needing to peel the adhesive part off. It's a well thought out design and I was impressed by just how much flexibility there was in the mounting solution while still allowing for a very easy installation and rigid final setup. The magnets are strong, strong enough that if I needed to move a monitor regularly it would actually be annoying because while you can definitely take these apart they hold way too well to be doing so all the time. These are clearly intended for a permanent installation, without making it overly difficult to take things apart if you have to. If you have to turn a screen often though, such as to show something to a client or make the screen visible from another area of the room, I'm not sure if these will be what you need as they don't just come apart easily. If you want your screens to stay where you put them though, they are awesome! For me, these were perfect, and based on the design I think they should work well for most monitors and most setups. I'm so glad this product exists, it was well worth the money.

I'd give 10 stars if I could
Holy cow! This is it! For YEARS I've been looking for a product that would align the bezels on my monitors. I found this product by scrolling through reels and then found the link to Amazon. The price was steep and I was hesitant, but I took the gamble and I'm so glad I did. Installation is slightly confusing, and you really want to know how this works before you adhere it to any surface. I'll break it down for you: Align your monitors flat next to each other. Attach one side with the adhesive, then snap the other side on with the magnet. Peel that adhesive strip and lay it on your second monitor so that they are even. Repeat for the bottom. Twist the U shape up for the left, down for the right. Adjust your angle and then lock them by putting the U shape back to how it was. That's it. The stability on these simple magnets is excellent. I went from a wobbly mount to locked in and only moving when I want it to. I'm so happy this product exists. That's German engineering for you. 💪💪

Works well...but the price!
I ordered two sets to connect 3 monitors together for a workstation at my job. These are well designed and the magnets are pretty strong. Installation is easy and it holds the alignment well. The only issue is the price. For what it is, the price is quite high. The value proposition would be much higher for those who need to be able to not have them aligned from time to time, such as rotating one around for others to see in an office. But if don't need to do this and just want alignment, there are much cheaper options. If you want to go the cheapest DIY route and it won't be seen, some popsicle sticks with two sided tape works well. You can crack them in the middle to act as a hinge.
