Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. David Polvilaitis (Illustrator) (illustrator). First Edition, 2nd Printing. Text/NEW & Bright. Softcover/Fine. Mysteries in nature yet awaiting scientific explaination. One day, a housewife, in her kitchen in Smethwick, England, saw a ball of violet light hovering above the stove. Rattling faintly, the ball floated across the room & touched her. Brushing it off, an explosion shook the room & the ball vanished. This, rare manifestation, known as "ball lighning", is but one the 50 oddities recorded in this book. Inexplicable phenomena that, occuring once in a blue moon, surely fed many a myth & legend we have inherited. 227 pgs in 8 parts: I,The Mind; II, Biology; III, Health; IV, From Plants to Animals; V, The Planet Earth; VI, The Universe; VII, Mathematics; and VIII, Natural Phenomena.
