It’s got something for everyone; whether you want to know why some people hate Brussels sprouts, how to stop avocados turning brown, or if carrots can really help you see in the dark, you can grab a copy here.

If you didn’t already know, the first Compound Interest book is now available! “Why Does Asparagus Make Your Wee Smell?” features 58 different graphics and explanations on the chemistry of food and drink. Though a few have been featured on the site previously, all of the graphics have been redesigned for the book, and a large number of them haven’t been featured on the site at all!

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the site’s Twitter feed, you’ll have heard that I’ve been lucky enough to secure a book deal with Orion Publishing. The book will be based on the food chemistry graphics on the site, which I’ll be reworking, along with a lot more new entries. Whilst it’s a project that’s going to consume the majority of my summer holidays, it’s one I’m really excited about; for anyone who’s interested, here’s a little more information on it.
