More Scientific Secrets of Everyday Life Laid Bare
Why use expensive beauty products when you can moisturise with jellyfish? Have you ever suspected pollution was to blame for your children's plummeting IQ? Ready to take a sea change . . . on Mars? Science does not sit still and, continuing on from the success of Chris Smith's first book, The Naked Scientist, comes the equally compelling and curious follow-up.
In The Return of the Naked Scientist, you will discover a treasure trove of cutting-edge research, far-flung factoids and the ability to see into our scientific future. Well known for his popular slot on ABC's Radio National and co-writer of Mythconceptions in the Good Weekend, top scientist Chris Smith once again answers the questions you never thought to ask.
About the author
Chris Smith has wanted to be an author ever since he was eight and won a competition by writing story about a baby dinosaur who loved biscuits. That story is soon to be brought to life as a blockbuster Hollywood movie. Not really, he made that part up. Chris worked for many years as a newsreader and presenter on radio stations including Xfm and BBC Radio 1. That's where he met Greg James, and in between messing about on the airwaves the pair created the bestselling Kid Normal series. Chris lives in north London with his family and a cat called Mabel who can go invisible.
