Synopsis
Toxic Farts is the perfect bathroom reader for the scientifically inclined, detailing hundreds of deadly ways that nature works to keep humanity in check. This book provides the information we need to survive!, Why does nature try to kill us? In the same way that humans "thin the herd" when a particular group of animals grow too dense or too expansive for their habitat, nature tries make sure we live in balance with the world as well, which, let's face it, we suck at. Toxic Farts, Brain-Eating Amoebas, Mosquito Assassins & More details hundreds of the scariest, messiest, smelliest, most terrifying ways that nature works to destroy, maim or sicken humans every single day. Each page of this book examines an oddity (or two) from the natural world that is harmful to humanity. And we're not talking about car wrecks, warfare, drug overdoses or parachute accidents. We're talking about biology, chemistry, botany, invasive little critters that eat our brains, slimes that dissolve our flesh, smells that cause our throats to close up, and other environmental assassins. Provided with such information, we might just survive. That's right. It's humans vs. the world and, damn it, we're going to win if it kills us., An eye-opening examination of the earth's most deadly threats to mankind, including nearly 300 horrifying (and sometimes humorous) entries If you think the biggest threat to humanity is our fellow humans, think again. From flesh-eating fiends and parasitic pests to icicles just loose enough to impale from above, we as a species have innumerable enemies and not nearly enough places to hide. With this book, you can prepare yourself for death from natural causes - particularly the ones that seem wholly unnatural. Featuring more than 290 creatures, disasters and other agents of destruction, Toxic Farts includes every way imaginable that the planet is actively trying to get rid of you, whether in the wild or the "safety" of your own backyard, giving you even more reasons to never leave the house. That's right. From face-melting plants to leopard serial killers, it's humans vs. the world and, damn it, we're going to win if it kills us.

    Book exactly as specified, rapid international delivery (USA to UK), and a reasonable price for an out-of-print book. I was also very pleased and reassured by the quality of packaging for the book. It arrived in a cardboard box, and inside, it had brown paper to pad out the box, plus brown paper around the book to further protect it. This meant the book survived international shipping in great condition. On that basis, I highly recommend this seller.
