From the universally praisedNew York Timesscience writer George Johnson ("He provides some ofthe best science writing I have come acrossin a long time"-Paul Davies), an irresistible book on the ten most fascinating experiments in the history of science-moments when a curious soul posed a particularly eloquent question to nature and received a crisp, unambiguous reply.

Ch.2 -William Harvey: Mysteries of the Heart
Ch.3 -Isaac Newton: What a Colour Is
Ch.4 -Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier: The Farmer's Daughter

Ch.7 -James Joule: How the World Works
Ch.8 -A. Michelson: Lost in Space
