A IS FOR ARMAGEDDON is a brilliantly funny, thoroughly factual and stunningly illustrated guide to every feasible disaster scenario - from plague, drought and famine, to animal flatulence, obesity and World War III, from economic collapse and terrorism, to ozone depletion and chemical sink - accompanied by a critical time line for when we might expect to die - now, soon, later, or too late it s already started. A veritable panoply of impending doom, this catalogue of disasters will inform and delight in equal measure. Just don't read it too close to bedtime!
