many other unexpected questions about ourselves and the surrounding world. We gathered the most unexpected questions and then asked smart high school students, university students, and scientists from the most advanced Russian universities to answer them. They explained complex things in a language that children can understand. Thanks to the funny illustrations by comic artist Yevgeny Yakovlev, the book turned out to be not only educational but also entertaining. Participants of the project "Summer School" and a team of authors and freelance correspondents from the popular science magazine "Schrödinger's Kitten" worked on the book.
