  Max Cryer's 15-minute spot on John Campbell's National Radio program every Saturday morning has proved a hit with listeners for three years now. the quirks of language seem to fascinate New Zealanders, and Max's mailbag of 'curious questions' about language usage and evolution is always full. After repeated requests from listeners, and attempts by other publishers to persuade Max to produce a book, he has finally allowed HarperCollins to proceed. Curious Questions contains almost all the questions asked during the first three years of the show, together with Max's informative and often witty responses. Arranged alphabetically by key word, this book is a goldmine of information, to be dipped into for reference or pleasure.
