Review
'Without Marc Abrahams, science would be a duller place.' (THE GUARDIAN)
From the Author
The most difficult thing about organizing the Ig Nobel Prize ceremony all these years has been getting people to realize that the winners -- and their achievements -- are real. Want some evidence of how difficult it can be for people to accept reality as reality? AMAZON.CO.UK PERSISTS IN CLASSIFYING THE BOOK AS "FICTION."
