520 _aThis sequel to the bestselling Book of General Ignorance continues the authors' mission of debunking commonly held myths and misconceptions in a witty, intelligent, and often hilarious way. With the same QI-style humor (from the British panel show QI: Quite Interesting), this book challenges "obvious" facts and reveals how much of our so-called knowledge is actually wrong—or at least more complicated than we thought. Each entry answers a seemingly simple question—about science, history, nature, language, or culture—and then explains why the most common answer is incorrect.
