They Laughed at Galileo by Albert Jack

That will never work... The new title from the author behind Red Herrings and White Elephants.

Albert Jack is an English writer and historian who became something of a publishing phenomenon in 2004 when his first book Red Herrings and White Elephants, which explored the origins of well-known phrases in the English language, became a huge international best-seller. The book was serialised by the Sunday Times for over a year and stayed in the top ten of the UK Sunday Times best-seller list for sixteen months.
His follow up book Shaggy Dogs and Black Sheep was also a best seller and has sold over 150,000 copies since publication in October 2005. His other successful titles include Phantom Hitchhikers, Loch Ness Monsters and Raining Frogs and Pop Goes the Weasel.
