 book:</strong></p>\n<p>The adventures of James Bond have thrilled readers 
 since Ian Fleming's novel <em>Casino Royale</em> was published in 1953\, a
 nd when the movie of Dr No was released in 1962\, Bond quickly became the 
 world's favourite secret agent.</p>\n<p>Science and technology have always
  been central to the plots that make up the world of Bond\, and in <em>Sup
 erspy Science</em> Kathryn Harkup explores the full range of 007's exploit
 s and the arms\, technologies\, tactics and downfalls of his various foes.
  From the practicalities of building a volcano-based lair\, to whether bei
 ng covered in gold paint really will kill you\, and &ndash\; if your plan 
 is to take over the world &ndash\; whether it is better to use bacteria\, 
 bombs\, or poison &ndash\; this book has all the answers and more.</p>\n<p
 >Could our favourite Bond villains actually achieve world domination? Were
  the huge variety of weapons and technology in Bond's arsenal from both th
 e films and books ever actually developed in real life? And would 007 actu
 ally escape all those close shaves intact? From the plots to the gadgets t
 o the ludicrous ways that his life is threatened\, <em>Superspy Science</e
 m> takes an in-depth look at the scientific world of James Bond.</p>\nhttp
