Synopsis

The enthusiasm and uncertainty with which a newly proposed scientific theory is received immediately encourages some scientists to disprove the theory and others to expand upon it. These tangent efforts are a very valuable result of scientific research, whether the original ideas are correct or not. Scientific Failure focuses on the successes that have been made out of failed theories.
