    EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT SCIENCE IS WRONG

    Book ID/图书代码: 10418018C00009

    English Summary/英文概要: A highly entertaining, myth-busting read for anyone with even a passing interest in science. Hot on the heels of the fascinating compendium Everything You Know About London Is Wrong, this next book in the series, written by author Matt Brown in his trademark humourous style, debunks the scientific myths we all take for granted. Does nothing travel faster than the speed of light? Well, in certain circumstances, a winded tortoise can go faster. Are there actually seven colours in a rainbow? Think again. And our author merrily explains why our hair and nails don’t keep growing after we die and why chemicals in our diet might not be the toxic threats we are led to believe. Covering everything from pseudoscience to phenomena of physics, scandals of space and scientific misquotes, Everything You Know About Science is Wrong shatters a range of illusions we have accepted unquestioningly since childhood and demystifies this most puzzling of subjects.

    Chinese Summary/中文概要: 对于任何一个对科学感兴趣的人来说,这都是一本充满着趣味性的,消除疑问的读物。 继精彩的《你所未知的伦敦》之后, Matt Brown以他标志性的诙谐风格,向读者展示该系列的下一部作品,破解了我们都认为理所当然的神秘科学。没有比光速更快的旅行吗?在某些情况下, 一只喘气的龟能跑得更快。彩虹中有七种颜色吗?再想想看。我们的作者愉快地解释了为什么我们的头发和指甲在我们死后不会继续生长,为什么我们的饮食中的化学物质可能不是我们所相信的有毒威胁。 涵盖从伪科学到物理现象的一切, 太空空间丑闻和科学错误引语, 《你所未知的科学》打破了我们从孩提时代起就接受的各种各样的幻想,并揭开了这个最让人困惑的主题。(Sandy)
