Description
'Made me go Hydrogen Argon, Hydrogen Argon, Hydrogen Argon.' Rufus Hound
As featured in Best stocking-filler books of 2017 - The Guardian
'Witty and clever writing, every topic is engaging, fun and in some cases laugh-out-loud funny...there are too many highlights to mention' - How it Works
- Why is it impossible to spin your right foot clockwise while you draw a 6 with your right hand?
- Can you extract DNA from a strawberry daiquiri?
- Would you make love like a praying mantis?
- Should you book a holiday on Earth 2.0?
The Element in the Room will take you on a rib-tickling, experiment-fuelled adventure to explain everyday science that is staring you in the face. If you are sci-curious, pi-curious or just the-end-is-nigh-curious then this is the book for you.
