About this product

Product Information

Features 25 different scientists and the ideas which may not have made them famous, but made history...Typically, we remember our greatest scientists from one single invention, one new formula or one incredible breakthrough. This narrow perspective does not give justice to the versatility of many scientists who also earned a reputation in other areas of science. James Watt, for instance, is known for inventing the steam engine, yet most people do not know that he also invented the copier. Alexander Graham Bell of course invented the telephone, but only few know that he invented artificial breathing equipment, a prototype of the 'iron lung'. Edmond Halley, whose name is associated with the comet that visits Earth every 75 years, produced the first mortality tables, used for life insurances. This entertaining book is aimed at anyone who enjoys reading about inventions and discoveries by the most creative minds. Detailed illustrations of the forgotten designs and ideas enrich the work throughout.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Yodel destroyed my comic, by forcing it through the letterbox. The seller responded right away and send out my refund. In any case, the comic arrived quickly and was packed well- he just used such force AND folded the card board envelope, it didn’t stand a chance! Thank you for the refund and your kindness 👍 will buy from you again
