Author's Summary: "Petunia married a biochemist, and Harry grew up reading science and science fiction. Then came the Hogwarts letter, and a world of intriguing new possibilities to exploit. And new friends, like Hermione Granger, and Professor McGonagall, and Professor Quirrell..."
 

Reccer's Summary: "Harry Potter for skeptics" is a pretty apt description of this fanfic. Rather than marry Vernon Dursley, Petunia marries a biochemist, and the two raise Harry Potter (as an only child) with utmost love, care, and rationality. When Harry is accepted into Hogwarts, he proceeds to analyze the magical world with the eyes of a scientist. The result is a lot of absurdity, and a pretty rapid divergence from the Harry Potter official story, but a generally fantastic ride. Harry certainly isn't realistic as a child of eleven, but you'll forgive the author for that just based upon the absurdly awesome things the Boy Who Lived gets up to.
