Elephants on Acid & Other Bizarre Experiments

There are cultural beliefs we have, hitherto unsupported by science. Did the French who were beheaded during the Revolution really still live for up to a minute? Could your dog really run to fetch help if you fell down a well? and what would happen to an elephant who was dosed with heavy amounts of LSD? It turns out that these situations, and more, have been scientifically studied in Elephants on Acid & Other Bizarre Experiments. This book also covers if babies would choose a well-balanced diet on their own, how to best sleep on planes, and the ultimate question: what tastes better, Pepsi or coke?
