Yakov Isidorovich Perelman (1882-1942) - Russian and Soviet physicist and mathematician, creator of a special genre in popular science literature - "entertaining science". "Entertaining science," wrote Ya. I. Perelman, "strives to make the familiar thing, long familiar phenomena that have lost interest in our eyes, shown from a new, unusual, sometimes unexpected side. Novelty incites interest, and interest helps to focus attention and awakens the work of thought". In the rich literary heritage of Y. I. Perelman is usually distinguished ten major books that formed the basis of "Entertaining Science". The present edition includes five of them, where it is about physical laws and phenomena, about the principles of mechanics, about outer space and interplanetary travel. The curious reader will get acquainted with many entertaining experiments, curious stories, clever puzzles, amusing tasks and paradoxes, as well as learn about the projects of the first dreamers of science, which made travel beyond the Earth possible.
