This book brings something really new. Few empty phrases, general consistencies but without details, pictures, and especially the unsung parts of updating the technological history of the 20th century, an entire gallery presenting 'Professor Tournesol' who wanted, which should have but could not.
We discover the American nuclear powered aircraft projects, exploitation of polymetallic nodules, climate control, operating hydrogen, nuclear fusion. The author's documentation is dazzling.

The author handles a certain irony. It is on it is easy to mock the now nuclear-powered cars, icebergs captured roping or oil steaks but if it were not for these mad scientists, would we today so many indispensable inventions?
Reasonable have lasted, enthusiasts will have experienced.
