I'm the author of "Experimenting With Babies: 50 Amazing Science Projects You Can Perform on Your Kid" (http://www.experimentingwithbabies.com, Oct. 2013)

It has sold more than 100,000 copies, and it even inspired an episode of "The Big Bang Theory," in which Sheldon uses my book to experiment on his friends' kids!

My other books are:

"Experiments for Newlyweds: 50 Amazing Science Projects You Can Perform With Your Spouse" (https://newlywed.science, April 2019)

"Experimenting With Kids: 50 Amazing Science Projects You Can Perform on Children Ages 2 to 5" (http://www.experimentingwithbabies.com/kids, May 2020)

"Correlated: Surprising Connections Between Seemingly Unrelated Things" (http://www.correlated.org, July 2014)

"You Are a Terrible Disappointment: A Compendium of Great Minds and High Achievers Who Had Already Far Surpassed You by Their 30th Birthday" is two books in one! The front of the book describes 30 trailblazers who shattered expectations — and did it all before turning 30. In the back, "Relax, You've Still Got Time" describes 30 late‑bloomers whose biggest breakthroughs came after age 30. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GKD316YG)

Aside from writing books, I also write software.
