Overview Who hasn't wondered what distinguishes an alligator from a crocodile, partly cloudy from partly sunny, or Daniel Boone from Davy Crockett? For the first time, the answers to all such nagging mysteries are in one place. Among the 75 other whimsical but factual entries: ?geek vs. nerd ?justice vs. revenge ?sunscreen vs. sunblock ?dwarf vs. midget ?democracy vs. republic ?vanilla vs. French vanilla ?robot vs. android ?monkey vs. ape vs. chimpanzee ?shiny vs. dull side of aluminum foil ?debit card as a debit card vs. debit card as a credit card The book also features 30 less-than-serious sidebars, such as the differences between nakedness and nudity, stop signs and stop ahead signs, and your you-know-what and your elbow.
