Book Introduction
A word from MD
The decisive scene that changed the world
What are the pivotal events that shaped the history of science? We present 60 pivotal moments in the history of science that transformed our thinking and shaped the world.
You can encounter the history of humanity and science together in a more interesting and concise way with a single image and a rich content that extracts only the core content in chronological order.
June 7, 2024. Children's PD Kim Hyun-joo
Decisive moments that will go down in history

As children's understanding level increases, the children's book market is also seeing a growing demand for more specialized publishing formats in each field.
The format of presenting difficult information as images rather than text has already formed the mainstream market, and this may be a natural trend considering today's children are accustomed to social networks.


Looking at the reading trends of children growing up with social media, they prefer light text that emphasizes only the key points and intuitive images, that is, a method of conveying information that is easy to grasp at a glance.
Knowledge learned outside of textbooks is generally difficult to convey because it contains difficult information.
In this market, the format that appeals to children is 'information visualization,' and this is particularly effective for difficult-to-understand information books or trendy, topical books.
Additionally, the market's desire to make difficult concepts 'easier and simpler' for children is reflected in the desire of parents who want early education and advanced learning.
Accordingly, Fullbit is publishing the 'One Cut' series, a series of scene history books that summarizes 'critical scenes' that elementary school students in each field must know in 'one cut' images and text.

Publisher's Review
The power of the 'one cut' concept

The concept of 'one cut' has the format of 'one' cut, but in fact, it also means that it implicitly shows several messages within it.
In particular, the task of visualizing a crucial scene that reveals the context of a historical period can convey the content very effectively on its own, creating a concise yet powerful visual effect.
The 'One Cut' series incorporates these visual effects into the educational content of children's books, making complex concepts easier to understand.


In that sense, author Sang-seok Yoon, who studied life sciences and has established himself as a specialist writer in the field of children's science information books for a long time, has written children's books in various fields such as mathematics, history, economics, and art, and has made the 'One Cut' series special with his easy and honest writing style.
Also, writer Park Jeong-seop shook off the burden of having to express the scene in a single cut and presented warm pictures that are alive with his unique humor and wit.

The 'One Cut' series will be published in a total of 8 volumes, including 'History of Science in One Cut', 'History of Mathematics in One Cut', 'Korean History in One Cut', 'World History in One Cut', 'History of Life in One Cut', 'History of Inventions and Discovery in One Cut', 'History of Economics in One Cut', and 'History of Art in One Cut', starting with 'History of Science in One Cut' in 2024 and completing it by 2025.

The History of Science in One Shot

Expressing a scene from the history of science, which may be somewhat unfamiliar to elementary school students, in a single frame adds visual impact to difficult reading.
This helps children understand the content easily and quickly, and indirectly experience various aspects of science by observing various scenes.
Above all, it is simple and intuitive.
It allows us to focus on the important moments that changed the world, and it stimulates our understanding and interest in science.
Stimulates creativity and imagination, and presents ideas and perspectives.


Educational content that integrates science and history

《A Brief History of Science》 presents a series of events that occurred in the course of scientific development in chronological order.
It is a way to show scientific events, such as Newton's discoveries, from a historical perspective along with the context of the times.


This is a fascinating learning experience for children, as this interdisciplinary approach helps them understand scientific concepts and principles and how they have influenced human history.
Understand how scientific discoveries or theories were accepted and what impact they had in a particular culture or era.


Developing scientific thinking

Studying the history of science is the process of understanding how scientists reached conclusions through experiments and analysis during the development of scientific discoveries and theories.
Science has made many achievements in the development of various fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, space science, and medicine, and these achievements play a major role in making children more interested in science.
Through this, we develop scientific thinking skills such as interest and curiosity, the enjoyment of scientific inquiry, problem-solving skills, and reasoning skills.

Broadening the historical perspective

《A Brief History of Science》 shows the historical development of science.
We understand how the development of science is related to the development of human civilization, and through this, we understand the history of humanity and the history of science together.
By learning about the lives and achievements of major scientists and understanding the eras and social environments in which they worked, you will develop a broader perspective on history.

Exposure to diverse issues and perspectives

《A Brief History of Science》 covers issues in various fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, space science, and medicine.
Learn about the experiences and backgrounds of scientists and experience different perspectives on science.
Furthermore, through different interpretations and debates about scientific theories and discoveries, we can learn about the impact of science and technology on society and how they address social issues.

Approaching Reading Methods for Modern Children

In keeping with the reading habits of modern children, who are accustomed to images and short texts, we first presented 60 important key events that children must know in pictures, and then summarized them in brief text so that they can immerse themselves in the content in a short period of time.
Turn the pages and see each scene at a glance! It not only enhances the enjoyment and excitement of reading, but also fosters a healthy reading habit.

Increase authority through review and recommendation by experts in each field

The book's expertise and reliability were enhanced through the review and recommendation of author In-Kyung Jeong, who served as a research professor at the Institute of Science and Technology Studies at Korea University, is currently the author of the high school textbook "History of Science," and is active as a science writer.
