Quirkology

In 'Quirkology', Professor Richard Wiseman delves into the backwaters of human behavior, uncovering tell-tale signs of lying, the science behind speed-dating and personal ads, and what a person's sense of humor reveals about their mind.

Wiseman's research involves secretive observations, unusual experiments in various settings, and even staging fake events in allegedly haunted buildings.

The book presents a fun, clever, and unexpected picture of the human mind, drawing from thousands of research subjects worldwide.
