«Els premis darwin» is the humour book by Wendy Northcutt, published by RBA La Magrana in paperback (272 pages, in Catalan).
Wendy Northcutt collects real cases of absurd deaths and accidents awarded the Darwin Prize: people who, through recklessness, remove themselves from the gene pool. Examples include a terrorist who opens a letter bomb returned for insufficient postage and a thief who steals electrical cables without cutting the power.
Belongs to the Otros La Magrana collection, volume 064. Published on 18 January 2002.
For readers who enjoy real anecdotes of recklessness taken to the extreme, narrated with black humour.
The Darwin Awards are a rhetorical tongue-in-cheek honor that originated in Usenet newsgroup discussions around 1985. They recognize individuals who have supposedly contributed to human evolution by selecting themselves out of the gene pool by dying or becoming sterilized by their own actions.
