by Lachenmeyer, Nathaniel

Order 615208...$22.54
In this lively book the author looks at the world's most popular superstition, the number 13, from all angles. He uncovers the history, psychology and evolution both in the United States and in the remainder of the world, uncovering why we believe what we believe and why we stop believing. He answers questions such as when and how the superstition began; what is the 13 club, why did it count five successive presidents as members. Which countries don't believe 13 is unlucky? Why is Spain divided over whether Tuesday the 13th or Friday the 13th is unlucky. 212 pages, indexed, hardbound, 2005.
