Book description
HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS is a vile and disgusting compendium
of the world's most unpleasant creatures, diseases, hideous tortures and
every other type of horrifying, nauseating fact imaginable. Questions
posed in the book address revolting matters such as: * Do flies really
puke on your food? * Which worm can eat its way through the human eye? *
And how long does a head remain conscious after being guillotined? In
HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS, readers can explore a huge range of
horrible subjects, which most books have the good sense to avoid,
including Aztec sacrifices, bizarre medical treatments, body snatchers,
cannibalism, and eye-wateringly unpleasant execution methods. You are
guaranteed a brilliantly sickening read. Francesca Gould is a lecturer
in anatomy and physiology, and has always had a fascination for the more
unusual and gruesome aspects of the human body.
