The "Bad Stuff You're Not Supposed to Know" is a wickedly smart and humorous guide to the seedy underbelly of basically everything.

This ultimate collection of the bad stuff you're not supposed to know and you certainly never learned in school is organized by theme, with chapters for each of the seven deadly sins.

Inside, you'll find feuds, plagiarists, hoaxes, lies, schemes, scandals, evil dictators, mob bosses, acts of revenge, angry queens, cannibals and much more! This book is perfect for adding some spice to a dull conversation and proves that learning can be not only easy but exquisitely sinful.
