13-The World’s Most Popular Superstition
13 is part detective story, part cultural history – the first to separate truth from myth surrounding the world’s most universal superstition.
Why is 13 an unlucky number? Why, where and how did the superstition begin? Why do we have an obsession with the number 13 and how does this affect our daily lives? Is there a place for superstition in modern culture?
A book of 13 chapters of 13 pages, Nathan Lachenmeyer reveals the extraordinary history of one of the most prevalent and enduring superstitions in the Western world – the belief that 13 is an unlucky number. It is also a book about superstition in general – why do people believe in a superstition, knowing that belief to be irrational? How and why do superstitions die out?
