Detailed item info

Synopsis
Mary Roach has previously produced entertaining inquiries into the oddities involved with death (STIFF) and sex (BONK). Thus, having exhausted earth's two most interesting topics of conversation, Roach turns her attention to the heavens in order to ponder a question of even greater magnitude--what's it like to die or have sex in outer space? Roach applies her unique mixture of irreverence and scientific rigor to the unmentionable realities of space travel as she investigates the surprising and often unpleasant effects which anti-gravity and extreme velocity will produce on the human body.

Publisher's Note
The author of Stiff and Bonk describes the weirdness of space exploration and answers questions about the long-term effects of zero gravity on the human body and what happens if you vomit in your helmet during a space walk. Simultaneous.

Industry Reviews
"The book is an often hilarious, sometimes queasy-making catalog of the strange stuff devised to permit people to survive in an environment for which their bodies are stupendously unsuited."
(08/08/2010)

"A delightful, illuminating grab bag of space-flight curiosities....In lucid writing well-tuned to humor and absurdity, Roach tackles such topics as bowel movements in zero gravity....There is much good fun with--and a respectful measure of awe at--the often crazy ingenuity brought to the mundane matters of surviving in a place not meant for humans." (starred review)
