Science is golden

"'Nullius in verba' The Royal Society's motto roughly translated means 'Take nobody's word for it.' Why not do the experiment for yourself and see the reality of nature? Does cranberry juice cure urinary tract infections? Is the hookah really a safer way to smoke? Will the Large Hadron Collider destroy the Earth and the Universe? Is the purpose of the peacock's tail to attract females? And in the unlikely event of a plane crash are some seats safer than others? The human hand has 27 bones; Uranus has 27 moons; 27 is a perfect cube being 3 x 3 x 3; and in this Dr Karl's 27th book he takes us on another exploration of the dazzling world of science."--Publisher details.
