This exhaustive work on flatulence breaks new ground wind on every
aspect of abdominal gas in popular culture. A definitive taxonomy
of farts details the characteristics of each variety, including
barking spiders, cheek squeakers and green apple dirties.
Philosophical positions on colonic expression are examined, from
Confucius, Hume, Voltaire and the existentialists. Chapters cover a
wide range of fart-focused stand-up comedy, cinema, children's
books, toys and merchandise. The author's postscript describes a
lifetime preparing for his subject through fraternity membership
and offbeat assignments as a newspaper journalist.
