Desde luego, en un principio, por el título del libro este no me parecía muy interesante, pero después de leer la descripción de la contraportada, tengo la sensación de que pueda que me llegue a reír un rato leyéndolo.

Science of Harry Potter

De la contraportada

THERE ARE FEATURES OF THE HARRY POTTER’S WORLD that, though they are more understandable, still remain magical when one takes a scientific view. Invisibility cloaks may use clever stealh thechnology that is only being developed by Muggles. Broomsticks could switch off the tug of gravity, a feat that still seems incredible.

Giants, Lobalugs, Hinkypunks and the rest of the magical menagerie could be the result of genetic modification, a science in its infancy, while Bott’s beans could exploit new understanding of our sense of taste and smell.
