Science's Strangest Inventions by Tom Quinn
The history of science is littered with mad, bad and delightfully dotty inventions, from a bicycle powered by its rider waggling his head back and forth to the Improved Pneumatic Advertising Hat - a bowler that hurled a lit-up billboard into the air at the touch of a button. This book presents science's strangest inventions.-
