Publisher's Synopsis

Some facts are too terrifying to teach in school. Unfortunately, Cracked.com is more than happy to fill you in with this hilarious tome of trivia.

 A zombie apocalypse? It could happen. 50% of humans are infected with a parasite that can take over your brain.
 The FDA wouldn't let you eat bugs, right? Actually, you might want to put down those jelly beans. And that apple. And that strawberry yogurt.
 Think dolphins are our friends? Then these sex-crazed thrill killers of the sea have you right where they want you.
 The most important discovery in the history of genetics? Francis Crick came up with it while on LSD.
 Think you're going to choose whether or not to buy this book? Scientists say your brain secretly makes all your decisions 10 seconds before you even know what they are.

If you're a fan of The Oatmeal or Frak.com and hate being wrong about stuff, you'll love what you find in You Might Be a Zombie from the twisted minds at Cracked.

About the Publisher

Plume

Plume

Plume was founded in 1970 as the trade paperback imprint of New American Library. In its early history, Plume focused primarily on nonfiction titles, publishing approximately 35 titles per year. In the early 1980s, as trade paperbacks were rapidly becoming the format of choice among a large segment of book buyers, Plume began expanding its reach, and became recognized as one of the pre-eminent trade paperback imprints. The 1980?s saw Plume make its mark with a number of major bestsellers, including Toni Morrison?s Tar Baby, Erica Jong?s Fanny, Russell Baker?s Growing Up, and Gloria Steinem?s Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, among others. Now, in 2014, Plume is publishing 85 to 100 titles a year, and its backlist currently encompasses approximately 700 titles.
