The Genie in the Bottle makes science downright fun. Dr. Joe Schwarcz blends
quirky anecdotes about everyday chemistry with engaging tales from the history
of science. Get a different twist on licorice and travel to the dark side of
the sun. Control stinky feet and bend spoons and minds. Learn about the latest
on chocolate research, flax, ginkgo biloba, magnesium, and blueberries. Read
about the ups of helium and the downs of drain cleaners. Find out why bug
juice is used to colour ice cream, how spies used secret inks, and how acetone
changed the course of history. It's all there! "Dr. Joe" also solves the
mystery of the exploding shrimp and, finally, he lets us in on the secret of
the genie in the bottle. The author's first book, Radar, Hula Hoops and
Playful Pigs, was a 1999 best-seller in Canada. The author is a charismatic
public speaker and notable crowd-pleaser. His fans call him "Dr. Joe" and he
always brings humour, show-biz savvy, and magic to his work.
