We all know that things go wrong: wine stains, toast burns, computers crash. But how many of us pause to think why these accidents happen? This book probes into the reasons why mishaps occur, from sleeping through the alarm to making the bathwater overflow.

Review:
'Understanding is the first step to taking charge, and this book makes doing so seem a breeze.'
-- Daily Mail, 20 June 2008
Book Description:
Why do sparks fly when you put metal in the microwave?
Why does it hurt so much when you get chilli pepper juice in your eyes?
Why can cheese keep for weeks but milk go off while your back is turned?
