The Babinski Reflex: And 70 Other Useful and Amusing Metaphors from Science, Psychology, Business, Sports, and Everyday LifeJ.P. Tarcher, 1990 - 211 pagina's This witty book shows how dozens of specialized terms can have a broader, more colorful meaning than their original academic intent. Combining cultural literacy, humor, and a keen eye for human behavior, Goldberg weaves a rich tapestry of uses for those laws, effects, and principles that most people never understood anyway. |
