Eddie is geen gewone jongen. Hij is een koning, met een troon, zijn eigen wapenuitrusting en een kasteel met geheime gangen. Elke vrijdag geeft hij al zijn geld uit aan chocola voor de boeren. Maar als het geld opraakt, komt Koning Eddie in een lastige situatie. De kwade Keizer Nurbison komt op bezoek, in zijn zwarte mantel met puntige kraag en tijdens het lopen begeleid door griezelige muziek. Hij houdt Eddies koninkrijk al een tijdje in de gaten en is van plan om de ontevredenheid van de boeren te misbruiken! Als de keizer een grote nepdraak bouwt van een koe, groen crêpepapier, pluizige pantoffels en twee verjaardagstaartkaarsjes, om de boeren bang te maken, weet Eddie dat het tijd is om zijn eerste stiekeme plan ooit te verzinnen.

These are pigs who just don't care any more. They're nasty. They drink, they smoke, they steal, they eat pork and bacon, and they're strangely lovable while they do it. Do they metaphorically represent you and me when we're being bad? Or are they just horrible swine who don't give a damn about metaphors? You'll have to judge for yourself. - from the publisher

Auch Sympathieträger haben Depressionen. Andy Riley hat genau hingeschaut und enthüllt mit schockierender Offenheit, wie sich unsere langohrigen Kuscheltiere vom Acker machen. Für immer. Sie sind Hasen, sie sind flauschig, und sie haben nur eins im Sinn: sich umzubringen. Sie meucheln sich mit dem Hackebeil, sie werfen sich im passenden Augenblick unter die Stilettos schöner Frauen, sie verstecken sich im Barbecue. Fest steht: Keiner stirbt so kreativ wie Häschen, und das Schönste ist, dass wir ihnen dabei zusehen dürfen. Denn das ist nicht triefend traurig, sondern zum Kreischen komisch.

A tenth anniversary edition of the iconic book about the wonderful world of maths Sunday Times bestseller | Shortlisted for the BBC Samuel Johnson Prize 'Original and highly entertaining' Sunday Times 'A page turner about humanity's strange, never easy and, above all, never dull relationship with numbers' New Scientist 'Will leave you hooked on numbers' Daily Telegraph In this richly entertaining and accessible book, Alex Bellos explodes the myth that maths is best left to the geeks, and demonstrates the remarkable ways it's linked to our everyday lives. Alex explains the surprising geometry of the 50p piece, and the strategy of how best to gamble it in a casino. He shines a light on the mathematical patterns in nature, and on the peculiar predictability of random behaviour. He eats a potato crisp whose revolutionary shape was unpalatable to the ancient Greeks, and he shows the deep connections between maths, religion and philosophy. From the world's fastest mental calculators in Germany to numerologists in the US desert, from a startlingly numerate chimpanzee in Japan to venerable Hindu sages in India, these dispatches from 'Numberland' are an unlikely but exhilarating cocktail of history, reportage and mathematical proofs. The world of maths is a much friendlier and more colourful place than you might have imagined. This anniversary edition is fully revised and updated.
