Sex, Sleep, or Scrabble?: Answers to Questions You'd Ask Your Doctor If You Had No Shame

What's the best way to wash a thong? Why do men become gynecologists? Can doctors really hear heartbeats through a stethoscope? Is anything truly necessary in life besides a house, a dog, and a job? There are certain questions that seem to be of popular curiosity, but few have the courage to ask them, whether because they find them pointless, inconvenient, or shameless. Aware that embarrassment can often prevent a patient from asking their doctor the right question, Dr. Phil Hammond, a famous English physician who also spends his time as a comedian, has compiled a series of questions he asks during his stand-up routines—from the simplest to the most "eccentric." From philosophical inquiries about the Great Human Question to questions that would never cross the mind of a sane person. With a relaxed tone and clear language, leaving no room for embarrassment or modesty, "Sex, Sleep, or Scrabble?" presents indisputably useful answers, filled with refined irony and the most insensitive sarcasm.
