"Beyond Belief takes a look at how scientists and inventors have been inspired science fiction"
A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month March 2022
Science fiction has long delighted readers with its inventive ideas and incredible technology. Ideas such as time travel, teleporting and the creation of artificial life have always seemed destined to remain a fiction: just something to dream about. Beyond Belief takes a look at how scientists and inventors have been inspired to turn some of these fantasies into reality. They are hard enough to imagine and it is even more remarkable to think that they might one day become part of everyday life.

Teleportation, immortality, nanotechnology, x-ray vision, nuclear fusion and cloning – the scientists who work on these things have really really high IQs! I learnt so much from the book and really like the “What is it?”, “How does it work?” and “Did you know?” sections that gave little bitesize facts about very important concepts. I learnt what a quantum was and couldn’t believe that they are working on technology that could help us teleport! How amazing!... Read Full Review
