Something called...SCIENCE! This rip-roaring peek into a fascinating moment in history shows the early development and practice of the scientific method, and how one of America's most beloved founding fathers boldly challenged superstition with applied common sense. Join author Mara Rockliff to hear all about her award-winning book, Mesmerized: How Ben Franklin Solved a Mystery that Baffled All of France.
