Lives up to its title
I enjoyed this book. I thought the explanations of science trivia were excellent. I found most of the other topics covered interesting and the writing to be conversational, with a lot of clever wording. Although there are a lot of footnotes, they are all worth reading; this is where a good deal of humour can be found. Overall, this was a very worthwhile read. Thank you to Netgalley and The Experiment for the advanced reader copy.
