50 key lessons explained in the time it takes to use the toilet.
Let's face it, we've all got a few gaps in our knowledge that we'd like to fill - the sort of things we know we should know, but never got round to learning. Perhaps you are never quite sure of exactly what caused the First World War or were always embarrassed to admit you thought David Copperfield was a magician's autobiography. Maybe you used to be able to calculate the circumference of a circle but have forgotten, or always wanted to understand Freud's theory of psychoanalysis. So, what better time to start learning than while on the loo? We've taken 50 subjects and summarised them into easily digestible chunks-the perfect length to educate while you defecate. Get ready to expand your mind while you contract your bowels and to get smart while you fart. It's time to hit the books?
Combining the tropes of the toilet book and the trivia book, rewarding areas of knowledge are introduced in snappy entries designed to be finished in one toilet visit. These include the rise and fall of the British Empire, the plot of "War & Peace" and the basics of "The Communist Manifesto".
