Inspired by his award-winning BBC Radio Four programme, this irreverent work by Adam Hart-Davis and his sidekick Emily Troscianko takes the reader on a whirlwind tour of the history and mysteries of urine. Adam's inimitable style brings the science to life - whether re-hydrating emergency rations with urine or concentrating the psychoactive molecule of fly agaric - while Emily adds a dash of culture and celebrity with the aid of Andy Warhol and Geoffrey Chaucer, the Ancient Greeks and the Rolling Stones.
