DOES ANYTHING EAT WASPS? AND 101 OTHER UNSETTLING, WITTY ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS YOU NEVER THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO ASK: New Scientist: Free Press: Nonfiction: 224 pgs.
Anyone who likes trivia would really enjoy this book. It's filled with science related questions that are then answered by several different people in 1-2 page essays culled from a column in the New Scientist magazine. Anything from "Why do people have eyebrows?" to "How quickly could I turn into a fossil?" are addressed here. The answers are humorous in many cases and also informative. The great thing was that even if one particular questions was not interesting to you you could skip to the next question. I found it to be a very entertaining and quick read.
