Proving that fact is stranger than fiction Dr Karl Kruszelnicki launches his new moments in science series with this fabulous collection of stories about some recent awesome discoveries in science. How can sexual intercourse spoil your whole day (because you can't remember any of it)? What really killed Elvis Aron Presley (and why was he buried twice)? Why do men have nipples why can the pill make women choose Mr Wrong and why are there traffic jams in the middle of nowhere? Dr Karl gets to the bottom of them all - and more - and then goes on to crack the big one: how did Pigeon Poo unlock the secret of The Universe?

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book!, December 7, 1999
By 
Alice Thwaites (Tasmania, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pigeon Poo, the Universe & Car Paint: And Other Awesome Science Moments (New Moments in Science) (No. 1) (Paperback)
This is an excellent scientific book with a twist. Karl Kruszelnicki presents the information in a fairly easy to read way and eveything inside is guaranteed to fascinate you. The little boxes that are on nearly every page have some fascinating stories, about anything you care to look up! I have used this book as a reference for many school science projects and it has been extremley useful. This would be a great book for anyone who would like to know everything and practically everything is in this book! I wouldn't reccomend this book to younger readers, as it can get a bit complicated at times.
