    Abstract:

    Among the many great achievements of science in the past century there were a few that seemed like great breakthroughs, but turned out to be blunders.

    These "discoveries" were not only made by well known scientists, but also attracted the attention of the public media.

    The stories of three such scientific blunders will be told.
