About this title

Synopsis:

Humorously explores the science of Ptolemy, Pliny, Galen, Newton, Mendel, and Volta, including failed constructions, accidental discoveries, and early medicine

A fun, cartoonish book for the scientifically-inclined -- ages 8 to 80 -- that records some of the more embarrassing cases of scientific muddles, misunderstandings, and mishaps.
