Description
The world's most mind-boggling questions, answered through 200 brilliantly clever and addictive infographics.
What's the secret to living past a hundred? What's going on in China? Are we running out of sand? And how many chickens are there?
In An Answer for Everything, 200 of the world's most mind-boggling questions are explained by way of brilliantly clever and addictive infographics. Some will make you giggle, others hit like a sucker punch, and then there are the slow burners, where you can geek out over a data set for hours.
Authored by the team behind Delayed Gratification, the world's best slow journalism magazine, these deeply researched infographics are a compelling and darkly funny way to see the world around us with new eyes.

A fabulous compendium of a thousand new things you didn't know you didn't know. And it looks very nice too

Delayed Gratification is one of my favourite magazines, and one of the best things about it is the infographics. They've now published a book of them and it's glorious!
