In the ruthless pursuit of scientific fact, there is no candidate more formidable than Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, Master Geek and National Living Treasure.
"There's no topic on which Dr Karl does not have an interestingly expressed opinion" The Weekly Review
"Guaranteed good read" The Age
In House of Karls, Dr Karl addresses a range of issues and questions: how Politics and Greed are dirtying the purity of Science and why the world's most expensive book costs more than $23 million dollars, but only $4 to post.
