The Strangest Experiments, Theories, and Mysteries in the History of Science
by Timothy Brooks

Inside, you’ll
The mind-boggling implications of Schrödinger’s Cat and other thought experiments that refuse to die
Real government-funded research into psychic soldiers and paranormal perception
Brain science that borders on spiritual experience—including the infamous “God Helmet”
Chilling tales of haunted labs, missing data, and unexplained anomalies
The enduring mystery of consciousness—and whether it might be more than just biology
Each chapter dives into an unsettling What happens when science itself becomes strange—when experiments defy explanation, or when researchers brush up against something beyond their models?
Written with wit, clarity, and deep curiosity, Spooky Science doesn’t trade skepticism for sensationalism. Instead, it invites readers to think critically while embracing the wonder of the unknown. This is science at the edge—where discovery meets mystery, and where reason doesn’t silence awe.
Perfect for fans of scientific mysteries, pop philosophy, and boundary-pushing ideas, this book will change the way you think about what’s real, what’s possible, and what might still be out there.
