About the Book

Why are Swiss army knives red? Which type of alcoholic drink, when added to ice, becomes something a child could consume legally? What sort of person would be interested in buying exactly 1.91 US dollars? Based on the show which posits weird questions with wonderful answers, LATERAL is full of sideways-thinking twists. There are no points or prize - just reputation and bragging rights on the line. So grab a friend, pick a question at random, and enjoy trying to figure out some of our world's most interesting and off-the-wall facts!

About the Author :
Tom Scott runs two successful Youtube channels with weekly videos, and he's the host of the LATERAL quiz podcast. His videos have taken him across the world, and amassed over 1.6 billion views in the process. He was the presenter of GADGET GEEKS on Sky One in 2012, and most recently was seen Celebrity University Challenge competing for the York team, where he got to the semi-final. A two-time winner of the World Creative Thinking Championships, David Bodycombe is a professional quiz writer and quiz consultant, and the former question editor for ONLY CONNECT. He has written several quiz books for Constable and Michael Joseph, some of which have been reprinted more than thirty times, and has contributed to television shows including The Crystal Maze, Treasure Hunt and Fifteen to One.

Review :
David Bodycombe has one of the most devious minds I have ever encountered and, of course, I mean that as a compliment Excellent sideways-thinking fun Sometimes your brain needs to get lifted up, folded over, and whapped against a pole to shake some of the dust out. That's what Lateral is for. Your brain should be stretchy, and this book will stretch it! Just like the original Youtube series: super addictive! Mind-melting, satisfyingly frustrating, hilarious good fun - the perfect addition to a games evening with friends Infuriatingly brilliant. I got zero questions right. I loved it! The only quiz book where it's mildly disappointing when you know the answer, because you don't get the satisfaction of working it out. Ingenious - I love it
