Book 100 discoveries world Secondly and in NO way is this a slight on the author the 100 chosen topics were not MY 100 most important discoveries by a long shot Some may have lead to really important things but others were overshadowed by their descendants which then receive only nominal mentions However included in the back of the book are another 100 which didn t quite make the cut and most of my selections were there at least showing that they had been considered before being dropped which is better than nothing i suppose Paperback It s fine Essentially it was a long form Buzzfeed article counting down great discoveries of human history A good read for a twelve or thirteen year old to get them interested in science and technology Paperback
