Science and technology have always been central to the plots that make up the world of Bond, and in \u003ci\u003eSuperspy \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eScience\u003c\/i\u003e Kathryn Harkup explores the full range of 007's exploits and the arms, technologies, tactics and downfalls of his various foes.

Could our favourite Bond villains actually achieve world domination? Were the huge variety of weapons and technology in Bond's arsenal from both the films and books ever actually developed in real life? And would 007 actually escape all those close shaves intact? From the plots to the gadgets to the ludicrous ways that his life is threatened, \u003ci\u003eSuperspy Science\u003c\/i\u003e takes an in-depth look at the scientific world of James Bond.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45086585356439,"sku":"9781472982278","price":1130.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781472982278.webp?v=1769202299","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/superspy-science-9781472982278","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
