Goodreads asked Stephen R. Wilk:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Stephen R. Wilk For "How the Ray Gun Got Its Zap!" I have been writing about unusual science for years, so it seemed natural to write about Edible Lasers, the History of Ray Guns, and what Omar Khayyam's Magic Lantern were.
