| Abstract | "Few realize how fascinating, and even educational, this subject can be. You can learn about all sorts of things from pee--American history (Civil War belles hoarded urine for making gunpowder); the animal kingdom (when lobsters fight they squirt each other with pee from bladders on either side of their eyes); even espionage (scientists are using urine to classify "odortypes" that will identify individuals as accurately as their fingerprints).--From publisher description."--From source other than the Library of Congress |
