From astronomy and mathematics to medicine and computer science, this book gathers the stories of scientists, engineers, and scholars who faced ridicule, institutional gatekeeping, and lost careers simply for being correct. Instead of a simple gallery of heroes and villains, it offers a careful look at why established authorities reject new evidence and how the scientific method eventually forces the truth into the light.
