Movie ReviewsImpressively produced and informatively presented Midwest Book Review | Oregon, WI USA | 07/09/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "Accidental Inventions is an impressively produced and informatively presented 84 minute DVD showcasing for students grades 7 and up, just how ten of the world's most popular and influential inventions were created through laboratory or experimental accident. Unintended consequences of applied science that were to alter the world. Viewers will learn how a cocklebur inspired Velcro; how a laboratory accident created Teflon; how a failed tablecloth would give rise to Cellophane, how stainless steel was quite literally discovered in a scientist's junk pile. Also included are the stories behind the Microwave, Post-It Notes; Fingerprint Fuming; Matches; Dynamite; and Ether Anesthesia. Enhanced with interviews, historical photos, and 3D graphics, Accidental Inventions is a very strongly recommended addition to school and community library collections -- and an ideal homeschooling curriculum resource for the study of modern technology and invention."
