From pseudoscience to incorrect assumptions and unfounded belief,
science hasn't always been right. Contrary to recent debate on the
internet, nowadays we are fairly confident that the earth is not
flat and that we are in fact inhabitants of a spherical planet.
However, this was not always the case, with a widespread belief
that if you reached the horizon, you would simply fall off into
space. Along with assumptions about the health benefits of heroin,
the advantages of injecting monkey glands into the human body and
bumps on your head being indicators of personality and temperament,
science has a colourful past. In this entertaining and informative
look at a dubious history, Graeme Donald examines the origins of
some of the most extraordinary and mind-boggling scientific
theories of the past.
