Ed Sobey, PhD's Books

How does a radio-controlled car work? Author Ed Sobey guides readers as they take apart and rebuild their own radio-controlled car. In the process readers will also learn about radio waves, acceleration, towing capacity, battery voltage, and more! Many experiments include ideas you can use for your own science fair projects.

You can find motors in countless household devices. Discover how they work as author Ed Sobey guides young readers through the disassembly and rebuilding of a motor. Make your own motor and improve it for different uses. Many unique experiments include ideas for science fair projects.

Build your own robot! Learn what makes a robot work. Then design, build, and program your very own robot. The experiments in this book will guide you through the field of robotics. Many experiments include ideas you can use for your own science fair project.

Give renewable energy a try! Solar, wind, and hydropower can be used to offset the use of fossil fuels. The projects in this book teach young readers about solar cells, electricity, and energy. Experiment with simple ways of using renewable energy to power different devices. Many experiments include ideas you can use for your own science fair projects.

An introduction to careers in electrical engineering and includes projects for practicing related skills.

Robotics is one of the hottest fields in STEM curriculum. Open students' eyes to the field of professional robotic engineers. Readers will learn the basics from a real-life expert and get some hands-on epxperience all in a digital format.

Oceanographer and museum director Dr. Ed Sobey travels the world conducting research, arranging museum exhibitions, and training science teachers. He dives for sunken treasure, winters in Antarctica, and records whale vocalizations from his ocean kayak. In a series of short stories he relates the exotic experiences that befall a curious adventurer.

(Second Edition) Are you considering buying an electric vehicle? All of us are witnessing a once-in-a-lifetime transformation. For over one hundred years, gasoline and diesel fuels have powered ground transportation throughout the world. Now that is changing, and 2023 is the year when most people will recognize that change is happening. This book is a comprehensive, easy-to-understand overview of the passenger EV universe including guides for buying and owning an electric car. The authors discuss choosing, owning and driving an electric car, then explain the features, advantages, benefits and limitations of over 45 EV models including pickup trucks, SUVs, and sedans. "If you have to have a car, make it an electric car. As this book makes clear, they are better than old-fashion vehicles in every way." -Bill McKibben, American environmentalist and climate change authority; co-founded 350.org and spearheaded the fossil fuel divestment campaign resulting in endowments worth more than $15 trillion stepping back from oil, gas and coal. "Thankfully, now that the electric vehicle R&D "dark ages" are coming to an end and automakers around the world are charging up their EV programs, there's no doubt that we're about to see massive, valuable change in our transportation landscape." -Sebastian Blanco, one of America's leading electric car journalists who has been writing about EVs since 2006.
