Does Anything Eat Wasps?
Ever wanted to know how long it's possible to live on beer alone, why people have eyebrows, what would happen to Earth if aliens stole the moon or how fat you need to become to be deemed bullet proof? Well, if the answer to these questions is a "yes, I yearn for sleep but need these conundrums solving first" then Does Anything Eat Wasps? is the book for you.
Drawn from the New Scientist magazine
"Last Word" columns, this is a veritable hive (sorry) of information
that refuses to drone on (sorry, again). Witty and unusual, the book
has proven so popular it is now up to its fifth reprint since publication
in November 05, making it a bestseller on a surprise level of Profile's
Eats, Shoots & Leaves by Lynne Truss and rightly
so.
An invaluable resource for research,
quiz nights and being kept waiting to be put through to your tele-banking
advisor, Does Anything Eat Wasps? is the must have reference
that will amuse, astound and astonish that there are people out there
who have actually written in with such imponderables.
Oh, and the answer to the main question
posed by the book could be …. "what doesn't?"
