1.0 out of 5 stars
Too many basic inaccuracies,
By
This review is from: Poisoned Lives: English Poisoners and their Victims (Paperback)
There is little to say about the scientific credibility of a book in which the author indicates there are "humans and animals" (as though they were separate classes) but furthermore when the author states "organic poisons are produced by animals, mainly FUNGI and beetles". (Of course, because its a well known fact mushrooms are animals!?) This is only in the first 30 pages of the book so as not to spoil the fun to come.Of course, if you feel the need to amuse yourself with a historian's weak attempt at reconstructing chemistry (with an obvious ignorance of basic biology) please purchase this book -and a highlighter to colour in all the scientific inaccuracies you will find in it. |
