Feature
Description
Over the last 150 years, scientific journals, research institutions, and scientists worldwide (including Nobel laureates) have devised spectacular pranks. This book collects them for the first time: ironic and provocative, these jokes often serve to expose prejudices and stereotypes, bringing unexpected scientific (and human) truths to light. A book to learn while laughing and laugh while learning.
