About the book: 2018 / "What's going on around you! Life used to be calm, but now…” – such an opinion can be heard more and more often. And indeed, if you carefully look around, maintaining reasonable skepticism and open-mindedness, not taking anything for granted, it turns out that we live in a very strange world that does not want to fit into the given scientific framework. One after another, researchers come up with the strangest hypotheses, sometimes contradicting the scientific picture of the world - for example, about a flat Earth! And if we talk about politics and public life, it may seem that the world has gone crazy. Famous TV presenter Igor Prokopenko in his new book, using common sense, explores the opinions of both famous scientists and extravagant researchers and talks about amazing facts, myths and hypotheses relating to various areas of human life.
