Welcome to the most interesting dinner party you've ever attended!

Join seven friends for an evening of trivia, myth-busting, and camaraderie. You'll have a front row seat at the party, listening in to the early small talk—where light and fun ideas are discussed ("Did you know astronauts have Velcro on the inside of their helmets to scratch their noses?")—to the end of the night, when conversations get deeper. ("Did the popularization of drinking coffee lead to modern democracies?")

Packed with over 150 fun facts spanning the topics of ancient civilizations, animal behaviour, natural science, outer space, human accomplishments, pop culture, and more, How to Sound Smart at Parties ensures you'll always have something clever to contribute to the conversation.
