Tickling is a simple act that can provoke laughter, wriggling, or irritation based on the situation and the person involved. Almost Everything You Wanted to Know About Tickling: An International Study by Duncan Taub is a thorough investigation of the phenomenon of tickling. The book explores the scientific aspects of tickling, investigating its evolutionary significance and physiological reactions. The book delves into cultural differences in tickling behaviours and preferences through an extensive investigation, providing intriguing insights into this seemingly universal human behaviour.

The title of this book was the main reason why I chose it. This is the first book I have encountered that delves deeply into the topic of tickling. Out of curiosity, I read this book and found it to be worthwhile. I previously believed that tickling was mostly focused on the underarms, bottoms of the feet, and neck. However, I am now aware that individuals also tickle other areas that I should consider exploring.

There are numerous aspects of this novel that I thoroughly enjoyed. The book's ability to effortlessly integrate scientific data with fascinating storytelling is one of its most captivating aspects. Taub explains intricate details regarding the neurological and psychological aspects of tickling in a clear and amusing manner. This feature of the book enhances its appeal to a diverse readership, irrespective of their level of scientific knowledge.

Another strength of the book is its cultural sensitivity. Taub's inclusion of data from a wide variety of participants prevents oversimplifications and provides a detailed understanding of how tickling is viewed and felt in many cultures. This expands the reader's comprehension of the topic and emphasises the social and emotional importance of tickling in different situations.

I was intrigued by the book's in-depth exploration beyond only the mechanics of the act. The book explores the profound effects of tickling, examining its significance in forming social connections, childhood growth, and intimate partnerships. This expanded viewpoint enhances the novel by adding intricacy and sophistication, elevating it above a simple and cheerful portrayal of a recreational pursuit.

There is absolutely nothing that I disliked about this book, and I therefore think it is fair to give it a rating of five out of five stars. This book offers a distinctive and engaging examination of a seemingly mundane human interaction. The content is educational, fascinating, and thought-provoking, providing valuable insights into the science, culture, and social relevance of tickling. Since I did not find any grammatical errors, I believe that the book was exceptionally well edited. I recommend this book to any inquisitive adult interested in the science of tickling. Individuals in relationships, particularly those who value physical touch as their love language, are likely to be impressed by this book. Children cannot read this book because it contains sex scenes.

I have always wondered about the physiology of tickling and its benefits. Some people are more ticklish than others. What does that mean? I cannot believe that I can finally have these questions answered and then some. Thank you for turning me on to this book. I have added it to my bookshelves.

[Terry Kimble]

How very, very interesting! This review tickled me--hehe! I want to learn more about the benefits of tickling. I have young grandchildren who love to be tickled. As with anything, though, too much of a good thing can be irritating. I also tickled my children when they were young, and it felt like bonding with them. I am going to read this book asap. I loved this review!

[Qwerty Writes]

I never thought I'd see the day when tickling someone became a book. (I'm so speechless!) I hate it when people tickle me though, mainly because it's hard to breathe and I almost drowned a couple of times so it's scary and uncomfortable for me. It's also the reason I minimize tickling other people because of my fear.

A book on tickling - who would have thought. Sounds super interesting! Thanks for your detailed review, and for bringing this book to my attention, @Jeff Kanda.

[Lene Lena]

I also thought when you tickle someone, you focus on the underarms and feet, the sensitive areas. It’s great to hear that the book expanded your understanding of tickling beyond common perceptions. The exploration of cultural differences and physiological reactions truly highlights the complexity of this universal behavior. I'm interested in reading this book and learn more about tickling benefits for my nephew haha!

[Priya Murugesan]

It is quite an interesting and unique subject. I would really love to read this book and know the science behind tickling. Thanks for your review!

I find it very interesting that you have written a thesis on this type of subject. In particular, I know that tickling (apart from being able to occur in any part of the body) has to do with the trust that one has in others, it is a bodily reaction to a stimulus that leads to unconscious stress that is normally expressed with laughter. That is why we cannot cause tickling to ourselves.

[Amy Luman]

I am one of those people who finds tickling extremely irritating. I grew up in a time when parents thought that tickling was a good way for strangers to get to know their chilled. I am glad to know that it has different meanings in different cultures. Thanks!

[Julie Basil]

I also enjoyed this book and found it to be educational, but I found several errors and found some of the charts difficult to read because they were split between multiple pages in the ebook format.
