I never wanted to find out why my pubic hair was curly until my grandmother bought me this book, choosing, as I did, like most well balanced people do, to shave off said hair with my father's clippers, but now, I'm fascinated. Join Vernon as he takes on a thrilling rollercoaster ride of pubic discovery, from the invention of pubic hair in the early 1600's (which was considered "a lewde and evile poxxe on manne and beyste" by the unwashed masses), to the production of the first merkin in 1798, through to the stockpiling of pubic hair during the Second World War. An unmissable addition to the serious book lover's collection. A timeless classic.

I always enjoy self-help books, and this was by far the best one that I've found.

i first read this book around ten years ago and it completely altered my way of thinking. it gives the reader a guide to explore the many ways that your brain has of overcoming the various physical and emtoional complaints of the 21st C. the guide suggests visualisation of your physical body, and then asks you to send a team of workers to fix the fault. okay, it is meditation, but its meditation that makes you focus on the real, actual events that are happening in your body. it's easy to learn and will never be forgoten. try it and learn how to control your physical side from within. one thought is that we are told we only use x% of our available brain-power, this book will make you wonder about the remaining x%.
