123 1/2 Weird Wacky Moments of Science: Or Otherwise Interesting Moments of Science

by Kevin J. Cox

In this sequel to Mr. Cox's Award winning 100 Great Moments of Science, 1231/2 Weird Wacky Moments of Science picks up where the last book left off. In Mr. Cox's own words "While researching the first book I came across so many weird, wacky or otherwise interesting moments of science that I felt that there had to be a sequel." As always, Mr. Cox's writing is completely non-technical and uniquely understandable, garnered during 20 plus years of teaching science in the Worcester Public Schools. If you enjoyed Mr. Cox's 100 Great Moments of Science which thousands have, you will love 1231/2 Weird Wacky Moments or Otherwise Interesting Moments of Science. Did You Know ....
