Wer war Francis Drake? Ein ruchloser Pirat, der von den Spaniern El Draque genannt wurde und im 16. Jahrhundert auf seinen Kaperfahrten in die Karibik Angst und Schrecken verbreitete, gewaltige Schätze anhäufte und sich damit die Gunst der englischen Königin Elisabeth I. sicherte? Oder war Francis Drake ein genialer Navigator, der als erster englischer Seefahrer der Geschichte die Welt umsegelte und den Aufstieg Englands zur Seemacht einläutete? Er war alles: Freibeuter und Weltumsegler.

Der berühmte britische Forschungsreisende David Livingstone kam 1841 als Missionar und Arzt nach Südafrika und unternahm seit 1849 große Expeditionen ins Landesinnere. Er war der erste Forscher, der den ganzen Kontinent von Westen nach Osten durchquerte und wurde schon zu Lebzeiten zu einer Legende. 1868 galt Livingstone als verschollen, da man seit Jahren kein Lebenszeichen mehr von ihm erhalten hatte.

At least as far back as the ancient myth of Icarus, humans longed to fly - but it wasn't until December 17, 1903, on the windy dunes of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, that the dream finally came true. And it was all thanks to Orville and Wilbur Wright, two former bicycle mechanics who built their first toy plane - a rubber-band powered rotary - when they were just children.

In 1910, Captain Robert Scott prepared his crew for a trip that no one had ever completed: a journey to the South Pole. He vowed to get there any way he could, even if it meant looking death in the eye. Then, not long before he set out, another intrepid explorer, Roald Amundsen, set his sights on the same goal. Suddenly two teams were vying to be the first to make history - what was to be an expedition had become a perilous race. In 2018, Captain Louis Rudd readied himself for a similarly grueling task: the first solo crossing of treacherous Antarctica.

Both Thomas Edison and Henry Ford started off as insatiably curious tinkerers. That curiosity led them to become inventors - with very different results. As Edison invented hit after commercial hit, gaining fame and fortune, Henry struggled to make a single invention (an affordable car) work. Witnessing Thomas' glorious career from afar, a frustrated Henry wondered about the secret to his success.

All most people talk only about the Fibonacci Sequence, the simplest one to calculate...but people rarely go deeper than that, so Gene Grossman decided to - and has done with this Fibonacci book the same thing he did with the popular books he wrote entitled Celestial Navigation for the Complete Idiot and Trigonometry for the Complete Idiot: He wrote plain-English explanations that even kids above the age of eight should be able to easily follow - and explain to their parents.... And it goes the other way, too.

Но если вы попробуете вспомнить, что он изобрёл, то в лучшем случае в голову придут часы «Павлин» из Эрмитажа (которые он не построил, а лишь починил). Мы же хотим рассказать вам о подлинном пути знаменитого мастера. Кулибин придумал множество удивительных вещей, которые опередили своё время.
