Riassunto:

Provides answers to a host of questions such as "why don't people talk in elevators," "why do fools fall in love," and "why do foreign languages sound so fast"

Dal risvolto di copertina interno: ly does Joel Achenbach ask some great questions, but he actually answers them--and with a rigor that puts him somewhere between Socrates and Miss Manners. Plus he's funnier than either of them.:
Judy Jones and William Wilson
