Richard Wiseman's book Quirkology is a fun read for anyone interested in the science of psychology. The book is a nice light read. It contains several scientific studies, my favorite was the immense "Best Joke" study. Here Wiseman set up a website for people to submit their favorite jokes and also rate them in order to determine the worlds funniest joke. His findings were enlightening. An other study involved attraction and the differences between males and females. Although some studies may seem far-fetched the book overall tells a great story of what Quirkology really is.
Although I bought it 'used', this book was in absolutely perfect condition. It also arrived about 3 days sooner than expected. Thank you!
