📖 Sample Chapter

You may have heard that Thomas Edison invented the light bulb or that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. The fuller stories are more interesting: many inventions emerged through years of experiments, shared work, competing designs and occasional lucky accidents.
Welcome to Eureka! — a trivia book for curious readers who enjoy discovering how everyday objects and world-changing technologies came to be. From household essentials to the beginnings of modern computing, these questions explore the people, ideas and surprising turns behind familiar inventions.
Inside are 100 multiple-choice questions arranged across seven chapters. Each question has three options. Try answering before turning to the answer section at the end of that chapter, where each answer includes a short explanation to make the facts easier to remember and share.
Play solo, challenge a friend, or use the questions for a quiz night. Some stories involve disputed credit, so the explanations note when historians do not agree on a single inventor or a definitive first.
Ready to find out how much you know about the things that changed the world? Let’s begin. Eureka!
