Draconors. 100 scientific fairy tales

At the zipper, which blinded with bright light and stunned with thunder, split the centuries -old oaks, caused fires and killed, people of the Middle Ages looked with fear, as at a cruel and strong dragon. Who managed to tame this terrible electric dragon, force him to obediently run around the wires, shine peacefully in light bulbs and diligently twist the electric motors? This was done by scientists and engineers who managed to catch and study lightning. This book tells about them - bold and smart tamers of lightning.
This book of scientific stories is special, it is not about answers, but about questions. She tells not so much about the achievements of science as about unresolved scientific problems, about unrelated theories and unknown laws of nature - in other words, about not yet open islands in science. If the young reader wants to study the miracles of the cosmos, the study of dinosaurs or the deciphering of mysterious manuscripts, then he certainly needs to read this book, which can become a map on the way to Terra Incognita and to the unraveling of the fascinating secrets that surround us.
