      Čeho všeho se lidé děsí a co to znamená… Určitě všichni znáte někoho, kdo má hrůzu z výšek, nebo se rozječí, jen co uvidí pavouka. A možná mezi takto postižené patříte vy sami. Nejspíš už ale nevíte, že existují i lidé, kteří se hrozí smíchu, schodišť nebo loutek. A ještě mnohem nevinnějších věcí. Fobií je zkrátka nepřeberné množství a naše kniha vás seznámí snad se všemi, které kdy byly zaznamenány. Kromě toho se dozvíte, z jakého jazyka a z jakých slov vznikly jejich názvy. A nám nezbývá než doufat, že netrpíte BIBLIOFOBIÍ čili chorobným strachem z knih.
