101 Un-useless Japanese Inventions

101 Un-useless Japanese Inventions

by Kenji Kawakami

HarperCollins Canada, Limited | January 10, 1995 | Trade Paperback

Whatever you do, don`t call Chindogu useless. They`re not. In fact, they`re completely. . . er. . . un-useless. 101 Unuseless Japanese Inventions is a catalogue of outrageous, bizarre creations - all of which have sprung from the ever-so-slightly twisted mind of Kenji Kawakami - which are incontrovertibly, gloriously real. You`ll learn all about the Baby Body Suit (perfect for hydrophobes who want to bath without getting wet), the Walk `n` Wash laundry tanks which can be fitted conveniently to your ankles, and even Duster Slippers for Cats that will let your cats help out with the house-cleaning. Isn`t it time that you had a little more un-uselessness in your life?
