In today\'s caffeine-charged, jet-fuelled, celebrity-a-minute world, who actually has the time to learn a thing or two? C\'mon, let\'s face it, life\'s too bloody short.
This is the perfect book for anyone with a sense of humour...and a short attention span..
You\'ll laugh out loud as you identify everything from Satan to Santa Claus
Beethoven to Banksy; the Great Wall of China to the Berlin Wall
Elvis, Ikea, videogames and everything in-between.
Told in ingenious pictograms that are witty, provocative and to the point, Life in Five Seconds takes over 200 important events, inventions, great lives, wonders of the natural world and cultural icons that you really need to know about, and then - hey presto! - cuts away all the useless details.
The result is a hilarious visual snapshot that puts all of Life into context.
What you need is instant knowledge.
