Swearing, it turns out, is an incredibly useful part of our
linguistic repertoire. Not only has some form of swearing existed
since the earliest humans began to communicate, but it has been
shown to reduce physical pain, help stroke victims recover their
language, and encourage people to work together as a team. Swearing
Is Good For You is a spirited and hilarious defence of our most
cherished dirty words, backed by historical case studies and
cutting-edge research. From chimpanzees creating their own curse
words, to a man who lost half his brain in a mining accident
experiencing a new-found compulsion to swear - Dr Emma Byrne
outlines the fascinating science behind swearing; how it affects us
both physically and emotionally, and how it is more natural and
beneficial than we are led to believe.
