Through a series of case studies, the authors aim to debunk the idea that science is the result of competent theorization, observation and experimentation. They argue that scientific certainty comes from interpreting ambiguous results within an order which the scientists themselves impose.

El exito obtenido por la Historia del tiempo, de Stephen Hawking, propicio la creacion, en 1991, de esta coleccion de divulgacion cientifica que fue dirigida durante largo tiempo por dos personas de formacion humanistica: de ahi ciertas contaminaciones al inicio de la coleccion. Sin embargo, cuando Jose Manuel Sanchez Ron se hizo cargo de ella, dio un aprobado a la gestion anterior. En esta coleccion, quiza la mas ambiciosa de todas las de divulgacion cientifica que se editan en espanol, se han publicado obras de Stephen Jay Gould, Carl Sagan, lan Stewart, Edward O. Wilson, Antonio Damasio, Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Ilya Prigogine, John D. Barrow, Rita Levi Montalcini, Richard P. Feynman, Roger Penrose, Steven Weinberg, Rachel Carson, Francisco Garcia Olmedo, Francisco Yndurain o Jose Manuel Sanchez Ron. Este fascinante libro parece a primera vista una coleccion de historias sobre episodios curiosos, discutibles o fraudulentos de la investigacion cientifica pero su finalidad no es la de divertir, sino la de mostrar como funciona en realidad la ciencia.
