A LOOK AT VICE THROUGHOUT HISTORY… AND HOW YOU CAN RECREATE DEBAUCHERY AT HOME!
A hilarious, fascinating and alternative history of bad behaviour, from an editor at Cracked.com.
Part history lesson, part how-to guide, A BRIEF HISTORY OF VICE includes interviews with experts and original experimentation to bring readers a history of some of humanity's most prominent vices, along with explanations for how each of them helped humans rise to the top of the food chain.
Evans connects the dots between coffee and its Islamic origins, the drug ephedra and Mormons, music and Stonehenge and much more. Chapters also include step-by-step guides for re-creating prehistoric debauchery in your modern life based on Evans's first-hand fieldwork.
Readers won't just learn about the beer that destroyed South America's first empire - they'll learn how to make it at home!
