The Inventions of Daedalus: A Compendium of Plausible Schemes
Science
A collection of David Jones's long-running 'Daedalus' columns from New Scientist and Nature, each proposing an inventive, half-serious scientific scheme that is neither quite feasible nor wholly absurd. Friedman has shared it as a very enjoyable book, fitting his taste for playful, idea-dense interdisciplinary thinking.
