Synopsis

The Book of Bizarre Truths is a 704-page collection of answers to hundreds of provocative questions covering a vast range of topics, from the strange to the sublime.

• Includes urban legends, old wives tales, misattributed quotes, and corrected so-called facts and trivia that have gained authenticity despite less-than-reliable sources.
• Topics covered include the animal kingdom, health, origins, traditions, science, history, geography, sports, people, and food.
• More than 200 questions that are answered, including:
  • Do cows cause global warming?
  • How many ants make a full meal for an anteater?
  • How late is fashionably late?
  • What's the smelliest thing on the planet?
  • Do woodpeckers get headaches?
