Why do airliners suddenly plummet? Does a compass work in space? Why do all the local dogs howl at emergency sirens? How can a tree grow out of a chimney stack? Why do bruises go through a range of colours? Why is the sea blue inside caves? Many seemingly simple questions are actually very complex to answer. And some that seem difficult have a very simple explanation. New Scientist's 'Last Word' celebrates all questions - the trivial, the idiosyncratic, the baffling and the strange. This selection of the best is popular science at its most entertaining and enlightening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56367666463093,"sku":"9781473651333","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9781473651333.jpg?v=1763547130","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.pro\/products\/9781473651333","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
