Book Review: Einstein's Refrigerator and Other Stories from Flip Side Of History by Steve Silverman

In Einstein's Refrigerator and Other Stories from Flip Side Of History,   High School teacher Steve Silverman (of Useless Information Homepage fame) shares more than thirty stories he has collected - true-to-life weird and bizarre stories.

Although the title carries Eintein's name and photo, the book is not full of scientific stories, in fact many of them are not.
                            
I enjoyed reading the book and at times found myself smiling over some of the stories that are so weird that they are what people usually describe as stranger than fiction.

Recommended for those who enjoy trivia and other nice to know facts.
