The more we ponder, the odder the world can seem. How do
footballers get their shirt numbers? Why does having daughters make
couples more likely to divorce? How do you move a horse from one
country to another? What counts as a journey into space? The keen
minds at The Economist contemplate all these questions and more in
their quest for the globe's most extraordinary quandaries and
conundrums, with bizarre facts and headscratchers that show the
world is even stranger than we might have thought. From plant-based
milk and supermoons to the next Dalai Lama and what really happened
at the storming of the Bastille, this collection of the oddest and
most mindboggling explanations will amaze and delight in equal
measure.
