內容簡介
For 20 years, Uncle John’s Bathroom Readers have been a tried-and-true remedy for eliminating boredom while taking care of business. For this latest entry, the Bathroom Reader’s Institute crackpot team of writers has picked through volumes eight through 20 in the series to come up with a collection that’s packed with the weirdest, funniest, and most entertaining articles to date. It’s flush with Uncle John’s favorite bits of information: obscure trivia, strange lawsuits, stupid crooks, origins of everyday things, forgotten history, silly science, quotations, wordplay, and much, much more. Intriguing selections such as The Dawn of Fertilization, Imposters!, The Lonely Phone Booth, The Curse of MacBeth, and Mother of the Bomb liven up both quick trips and lengthier stays. With nearly 600 pages of delightfully useless and occasionally useful material, this absorbing anthology is sure to become the most-thumbed book in the house.
