Editorial Review: Product Description:
Have you ever thought up a question so completely off-the-wall, so seemingly ridiculous, that you couldn't even find the courage to ask it? Maybe at the sports bar you were transported by the beauty of your beer to wonder, "How long could I live on beer alone?" Or, cycling through the park, you mused, "Did nature invent any wheels?" Or looking up at the night sky, you had a moment of angst, "What would happen if the moon suddenly disappeared -- if it were vaporized or stolen by aliens?" Full of fun factlets, Does Anything Eat Wasps? is a runaway bestseller around the world. It celebrates the weird and wacky questions -- some trivial, some baffling, all unique -- and their multiple answers culled from "The Last Word," a long-running column in the internationally popular science magazine, New Scientist. Tackling the imponderables of everyday life, sparkling with humor, and bursting with delightful erudition, Does Anything Eat Wasps? is irresistibly entertaining and utterly engrossing. So, go on. Put away your lab coat and your pencil -- science is fun again. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Interesting & Fun bookI bought this as a present for a friend, he was delighted with it. A great present for a guy (or anyone)who likes interesting and curious facts. Rating: - Very Interesting reading I've really enjoyed this book. So did my sister and dad when they read it. I definitely recommend this book. There are so many questions that are answered in this book that you wonder about but don't know the answers to. Rating: - EDUCATIONALI love learning about everything and anything and this book has so much to offer for someone like me. It's Terrific!!! Rating: - Interesting collection of factsI bought this book for my 14 year old nephew. The content looked interesting and entertaining. Rating: - Fun, but limitedWell this is indeed interesting. You will leave with more tidbits of knowledge to amaze your friends. But I was expecting a little more. It did not take me very long at all to read everything of interest in this book. IT is more of a novelty gift of coffee table book, not for educational or litereary pursuits. Browse for similar items by category:
