Beschreibung

Laugh out loud and then think seriously about these outlandish scientific studies

Marc Abrahams, the mind behind the internationally renowned Ig Nobel Prizes, is on a mission: to gather the bizarre, the questionable, the brilliant, the downright funny, the profound - everything improbable - from the annals of science research.

What's the best way to slice a ham sandwich, mathematically?
What makes Bobs look especially Bob-like?
Is the right or left ear better at discerning lies?
Could mice be outfitted with parachutes to kill tree snakes?
