Descriere

Gets to grips with those things that don't make sense in science, by highlighting 13 modern anomalies. These includes the unexplained 1977 signal from space, and the fact that the placebo effect has never been proven. Sold 30,000 copies in trade paperback. 'Brooks is an exemplary science writer... This is the sort of science book one always hopes for. Learned, but easy to read...' William Leith, "Daily Telegraph"
