This follow-on to the best selling That's Not in My American History Book explains in every-day language both the ordinary and the bizarre, technological marvels that we take for granted and laws of nature that serve as the baseline for life on earth. Beginning with clear and entertaining descriptions of the important discoveries that form the basis of our scientific knowledge-the book goes on to tell scientific stories that are lost between the pages.
These include the discovery of the periodic table of elements (and why it matters), the development of miracle drugs such as aspirin and penicillin, the invention of television, the prospects for earthquake prediction, and the genesis of the Internet.
