Swearing Is Good for You: The Amazing Science of Bad Language

Swearing Is Good for You: The Amazing Science of Bad Language

by Emma Byrne Author

Swearing has a bad reputation among parents, teachers, and other authority figures, but guess what: it's actually really healthy to curse! The latest research from neuroscientists, psychologists, and sociologists is presented here to show, humorously but in earnest, that swearing is as old as human communication is, and can reduce physical pain, lower anxiety, prevent violence, help trauma survivors recover language, and promotes cooperation. Who the f*ck knew?
