Eureka! Meet the famous names in the history of science and discover how the pursuit of truth is rarely straightforward. Justin Pollard gives us the inside anecdotes and eccentric behaviour surrounding our greatest inventions and discoveries. Meet Thales, credited as 'the father of science', whose only real claim to fame is that he often fell into ditches, discover how Archimedes never said Eureka and hated baths anyway, and how the most lucrative ancient Greek invention was not democracy but the slot machine. BOFFINOLOGY is well-researched, entertaining popular science in bite-sized, easily digestible .
