An all-ages quiz book that makes learning science fun, from the Discovery Channel science quizmaster and author of What Does the Moon Smell Like? From the surprising science behind everyday life to the mysteries on the frontiers of scientific discovery, this quiz book explores anything and everything in a fun, user-friendly format. Topics include the Earth, the moon, and the stars; satellites and space travel; pets and other animals; nature and the environment; the brain and the body; and the psychology of food, behavior, success, and attraction. The introductions to each question are peppered with interesting tidbits of information, and the fascinating answers to these quiz questions are explained in detail and given full context. Whether used as an individual brain workout or as a fun game at social gatherings, What Does the Earth Sound Like? is smile-inducing and thought-provoking. “Playful questions like those in What Does the Earth Sound Like? can provide important insights and understanding . . . Delightful.” —Marty Hoffert, professor emeritus of physics, New York University Praise for What Does the Moon Smell Like? “This is a great book. It became a popular table game in the summer holidays with two teams competing with all the questions. It makes an excellent change from celebrity trivia.” —Peter Gabriel, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer “Proving that science can be wildly fun with each new page, this book reads like a mad scientist’s Trivial Pursuit . . . A book that will surely provide hours of thought-provoking and amusing entertainment.” —Scene Magazine
