"With an emphasis on understanding where the foulest words in the English language came from--and the disgusting and hilarious histories behind them--this book demonstrates the true filth of our everyday words. But this book is more than just a list of vulgar words and salacious slang. It's a thoughtful analysis of why we deem words as being inappropriate as well as revealing 'good words' that have surprisingly naughty origins."-- Provided by publisher.
