That's Disgusting by Rachel Herz
An entertaining and revealing look at the science behind the emotion of disgust.
"..[Herz] manages it quite admirably: to be vivid and true to her subject without getting so revolting that her readers react the way we react to anything that disgusts us, which is by trying to get as far away as possible." -- Robin Marantz Henig, author of Pandora's baby: How the First Test Tube Babies Sparked the Reproductive Revolution - New York Times Book Review
"[Herz's] strength as a researcher and author are apparent in her ability to cite and explain academic studies in a conversational manner." -- Becky Krystal - Washington Post
