<p>In 2008, science can only really account for four percent of our universe, and the rest, well, just seems to be missing.

The US Department of Energy is re-examining cold fusion (a nuclear reaction in which atoms release more energy than they consume) because the evidence is too solid to ignore.

But, if the past is anything to go by, these anomalies contain the seeds of future scientific revolutions.</p><p>This mind-boggling but entirely accessible survey of the outer-limits of human knowledge is based on a short article Michael Brooks wrote for the <i>New Scientist</i> in 2005. It became the most circulated <i>New Scientist</i> feature ever. He has now dug deeply into these mysteries, and the results of his investigations point to an exciting future for scientific discovery.</p>
