Discover's 20 Things You Didn't Know About Everything: Duct Tape, Airport Security, Lab Accidents, Sex in Space...and More!

This entertaining and highly readable book, assembled by the editors of Discover magazine, offers little-known facts on such subjects such as sleep, birth, death, obesity, human anatomy, weather, the Internet and even duct tape. Much of the information avoids the trivial, however, touching on relevant topics such as the origins of biological warfare and the precariousness of airport security. This book has been written for a general audience, specifically those who are interesting in expanding the base of their knowledge in a useful and novel way.
