Zašto muškarci imaju bradavice?

Zašto muškarci imaju bradavice?

Mark Leyner, Billy Goldberg

A worldwide bestseller – a hilarious, satirical and scientifically based book by emergency medicine physician Billy Goldberg and author Mark Leyner. The answers are accurate (medically) but delivered with Leyner's wild humor.

Imagine a party, your third martini relaxes you, you meet "Dr. Rado Odgovoram" and finally ask all those stupid, intimate or bizarre questions about the body that bother you, but you would never ask your family doctor.

The book is structured as a series of short, humorous dialogues and answers, with interludes (Leyner and Goldberg "chatting" via IM), anecdotes from the emergency room and pop-culture references. It covers topics:

  • Food and the Body - Why does asparagus smell like urine? Is it true that "beer before hard, never better"? Can you die from overeating?
  • Body and Myths - Why do men have warts? (Answer: embryonic development - all fetuses start with a female "blueprint", warts form before gender is determined; later testosterone changes the genitals, but the warts remain.) Why does hair grow out of the ears/nose of older people? Why do we chatter our teeth in the cold?
  • Health Myths - Sugar hyperactivity in children? Does shaving make hair thicker? Five-second rule for food on the floor? Can you die of fear?
  • Bizarre and taboo – Is it dangerous to eat another human being? Sex in a wheelchair? Why does poop float? Are there werewolves? Can a lens disappear from the head forever?
  • Aging, sex, drugs – Why do older women have beards? Marijuana helps glaucoma? Is ER real?
