When the Earth Was Flat: All the Bits of Science We Got Wrong [Paperback] Donald, Graeme

**When the Earth Was Flat: All the Bits of Science We Got Wrong** serves up a deliciously irreverent tour through humanity's most spectacular scientific blunders. Graeme Donald gleefully exposes the hilariously wrong theories we once swore by—from bloodletting cures to the belief that heavier objects fall faster. This witty science history book doesn't just mock our ancestors' mistakes; it reveals how even brilliant minds can get spectacularly sidetracked by dodgy logic and cultural blind spots.

Perfect for curious readers who love their science served with generous helpings of humor, plus anyone fascinated by how knowledge evolves (or stumbles forward). Whether you're a science enthusiast, history buff, or just enjoy watching pompous theories get thoroughly debunked, Donald's conversational style makes complex topics wonderfully accessible.

This preloved paperback from Patina Paperbacks brings you quality secondhand reading at its finest.
