Sharp rarity. Stine describes how to build a number of devices that appear to contradict the laws of physics or mechanics, and that, in his words, ``work for some people'' but ``sometimes . . . don't work for everyone.'' Some of it is the other physics, sub-atomic, not taught so much with the standard propagated formulas exacted in the public higher institutions. Stine explains that his purpose is to stimulate individuals to build and test these gadgets, in the hope that they may discover new scientific principles to explain them. Stine introduces a group of "impossible" devices that shouldn't work according to our knowledge of science, but do. Provided are complete instructions and schematics. 113 pages. Insured post.
