À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'Mitch knows more totally useless things about useless subjects than anybody on earth'

Chris Tarrant

All the weirdest and most extraordinary facts from Mitchell Symons' bestsellers This Book, That Book and The Other Book brought together in a single, triviatastic compendium of completely useless information...

For example, did you know that:

* a snail has about 25,000 teeth?

* Thomas Edison, inventor of the light bulb, was afraid of the dark?

* the strongest muscle in the body is the tongue?

* Stalin's left foot had webbed toes?

* jellyfish sometimes evaporate?

This, That and The Other packs more weird facts and celebrity trivia between its covers than any book has ever attempted before. It's addictive, it's hilarious and it's utterly bloody brilliant!
