About This Item
Plume / Penguin, England, 2006. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Illustrator: Matt Pagett. Illuminating and vulgar! At first glance, this reference source, with its scientific, analytical tone and practical, straightforward diagrams seems respectable enough. Upon closer examination, Habitus Disgustica is really a deadpan ode to about every unpleasant, rude, and downright disgusting habit known to man (and woman). Through statistics, science, history, and culture, Habitus Disgustica dissects and analyzes the whole range of deplorable behavior in double-page spreads that include detailed entries on biting fingernails, spitting in public, making rude hand gestures, and breaking wind (loudly and quietly), as well as over forty other voluntary and involuntary practices. The perfect gift for slovenly friends and brothers-in-law, Habitus Disgustica offers something for everyone to learn aboutand be offended by. 144 pages. Pen mark to bottom of page edges indicating remainder mark. Illustrator: Matt Pagett. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Humour; Teens & Young Adult; ISBN: 0452287510. ISBN/EAN: 9780452287518. Inventory No: 209589.. 9780452287518
