Opis

One of Canadas best-kept secrets is the amazing list of inventions, both great and ridiculous, that were created by Canadians! Lisa Wojna celebrates Canuck ingenuity and tells the stories behind an array of innovations. From the space shuttles Canadarm to the electron microscope, Canadians can lay claim to many creations. Some have changed our world for the better; others are just wonderfully weird. Great Ideas; telephone; goalie mask; standard time; Superman; snowmobile; kayak; insulin; zipper; Robertson screw; egg carton; snowshoe; paint roller; basketball What were they thinking?; disposable ship; mechanical skirt lifter; Earth Paper; rocking chair butter churn; square bullets; synchronised swimming; salmon leather; jolly jumper; poutine; cylinder boat; 3-D jigsaw puzzle and a hat with a water reservoir for a flower. You will be amazed, astounded and occasionally downright embarrassed. But you will finally be able to answer Trivial Pursuit questions about Canadian inventions. And, yes, Canadians invented that game, too.
