Looks at the failures of inventors and less well-known (for good reason) pioneers. This book includes the parachute-overcoat (its inventor leapt from the Eiffel Tower to demonstrate it and plunged to his death), and Soviet anti-tank dogs (with mines strapped to their backs, they turned on their owners and blew up an entire Red Army division).

256 pages, 100 full colour photos/illustrations
