Does handwriting still matter? What are rogue waves? What do our teeth reveal about us? A compelling compendium of astonishing facts and occasional weirdness for curious minds.

'For anyone who has ever wondered ... just about anything! This is the book for you' Adam Spencer

What's the meaning of a bee's waggle dance? Who thought budgie smugglers into being? And why is cancer so damn hard to cure?

In these lively and surprising Explainers, writers from Australia's leading mastheads reveal the mysterious workings of the world, from outer space and the deep sea to our own backyards.

Navigate life's quirks and curiosities with journalists from these newsrooms-across health, science, culture and human behaviour-as they ask some of the deeper questions in life.

Does handwriting still matter? What are rogue waves? And how do you make the right decisions?

A compelling companion for the curious reader.

Felicity Lewis is the national Explainer editor at The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.
