This is a strange and fun little book that challenges one’s understanding of the world as we are told it exists. The ideas and devices discussed herein are “impossible” or “frauds” by the standards of some. The trouble is, they work! Maybe not always and for everyone, but they work often enough for some pretty level-headed engineer types like John Campbell and G. Harry Stine to be convinced. Campbell was the famous (some would say infamous) editor of Analog magazine during its heyday, and Stine worked as an engineer in the aerospace industry.
