Foundations of Fiction - Mad Scientists

In literary terms it seems you are never more than half a dozen stories away from a mad scientist. True or not it’s a given that they are amongst the most entertaining of protagonists and one of the go-to characters for authors down the ages.

In this volume we explore everything from the seemingly plausible to the obviously mad-cap and, of course, each narrative is driven by a character full of ideas but missing a button or two of common sense.
