WHY EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG!

Book ID/图书代码： 06920815B83348

English Summary/英文概要： This book starts from the jaw-dropping premise that everything you know could be wrong! Part science, part discovery and part fun, this book encourages kids to really think about science and the world around them, rather than just learning facts.

Lots of received wisdom is plain wrong. Sometimes, as with the old belief that all dinosaurs were scaly, it’s because new knowledge has come to light (fossil finds suggest many had feathers), turning ‘facts’ into myths. Other ‘wrong’ facts, for example that compasses point North, are half-truths: the full truth is much more interesting!

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书开始于一个令所有人大吃一惊的命题：你所知道的一切都可能是错的！有些科学性，有些发现性，还有些乐趣，本书鼓励孩子们去真正地思考科学以及我们身边的世界，而不是单纯的学习既定的事实。

许多我们业已接受的知识其实都是完全错误的。有时候，就好像人们总是认为所有的恐龙都是长满鳞片皮肤干燥的一样，那是因为新知识的发现（化石证实许多恐龙都有羽毛），使得“曾经的真相”变成了“神话”。其他的错误“真相”，例如罗盘指向北方，其实是一个半真半假的命题：真正的真相要远比这一命题而有趣的多！（DC）
