Discover the true stories behind these and other fascinating questions in this though-provoking and captivating collection of tales from popular science. From prehistoric " killer trees " to contemporary computer imaging, from the depths of the ocean floor to the farthest reaches of outer space, best-selling author Adrian Berry covers a truly amazing range of topics, time periods, and opinions. Here are enthralling stories of medicine, meterorolgy, archaeology, astronomy, and philosophy. Each ones reveals bizarre and interesting facts intertwined with superstition, intrigue, deceit, and, in some cases, even murder ( discover the surprising phenomenon responsible for killing half of the human race ). Berry's wry wit and often skeptical outlook add much to our understanding and enjoyment of these quirky inquiries into the unexplainable. Could a volcano actually have been responsible for the French Revolution? Three million years ago, when the earliest humans liooked up into the African skies, did they see the same sun that we do? Is it possible to harness the energy of black holes? 'Galileo and The Dolphins' even includes a section of brainteasing, fact-and fun-filled quizzes to test your own knowledge of science. Quoting everyone from Nostradamus ( journalist or prophet ? ) to Vice President Al Gore, Adrian Berry has assembled an extraordinary cast of soldiers, scientists, bureaucrats, charlatans, believers, and cynics to support, debunk, or otherwise speculate on the myriad mysteries of our universe, past, present, and future.
