Ever think about what was actually in those strange cabinets of wonder kept as museums in days past? Lawrence Weschler begins to understand the nature of the curious imagination when he investigates the Museum of Jurassic Technology. You'll wonder! and be amazed! by the objects he describes! but you will also ask which ones are real - or you may begin to see everything as an oddity.
