Pursuing the Unexplained: Puzzling Mysteries of the Natural World
No Customer Reviews
Ancient Egyptian depictions of electrical generators and lightbulbs... Bird eggs with coins inside... Gold models of what appear to be airplanes and bulldozers, sculpted by pre-Columbian Indians... Little old ladies who spontaneously burst into flame for no good reason... Fish, frogs, ice, and metal objects that fall from the sky...These are only a few of the recorded phenomena that challenge the basic foundations of conventional zoology, physics, and history. In this fascinating survey of unexplained "things," renowned Cambridge scientist Ivan T. Sanderson takes an informed look at the problems other experts prefer to ignore.This unorthodox yet richly illustrated compilation marshals little-known facts and recent discoveries of modern science in such a way that it will enrage skeptics, shake the complacent, and thoroughly bemuse fans of "Forteana" and the unknown.
