Book Description
My friends have often had cause to remark, I lack both the tact and the embarrassment genes and so am totally uninhibited about asking incredibly personal questions. I’m driven by two specific things: a very low threshold of boredom on the one hand and almost insatiable curiosity on the other. It’s a toxic mix that sometimes makes my wife wince with embarrassment and occasionally loses us friends but, at long last, I can put it to some practical use. So here are a hundred or so questions of a sexual orientation: breezy not sleazy; entertaining not titillating - if any bloke reading this gets a hard on then I will have failed. (if, on the other hand, any woman – any extremely cute woman - finds herself getting incredibly aroused by something I’ve written, then my email address can be found at the back of the book. I am, of course happily married and totally monogamous but, hey, everything’s negotiable...)

Why Girls Can't Throw
Author: Mitchell Symons
Publisher: Ad Lib Publishers Ltd
ISBN: 1913543595
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
For some time now, I’ve wanted to write a book which would answer the sort of questions that you don’t even find asked elsewhere – let alone answered. Obviously, in the interests of eclecticism, I’ve also included some of the more mundane, workaday questions – what you might call the curriculum for a book of this type – but even here, I have at least tried to bring a fresher less reverent approach to bear. Still, there’s no disguising the fact that it’s the more esoteric questions that really grabbed my interest and these are, inevitably, the ones to which I have devoted the most energy. That’s because I really do need to know why the word 'bastard' is only ever used as a term of abuse to men, whether it’s dangerous to suppress a fart, you can actually lose weight by eating celery, whether it’s possible to knock yourself out using just your own fist, why men don't use electrolysis to remove their beards, what would happen to aeroplane passengers if someone opened the emergency exit while it was in the air and why, of course, girls can’t throw.

Buyology
Author: Martin Lindstrom
Publisher: Currency
ISBN: 0385523890
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
