Tharoorosaurus by Shashi Tharoor

53 words have been picked and a whole article about the history of the word, how it originated, when was it used first and a lot more.

When I picked up the book, I was looking to learn about 53 unknown words but to my surprise, it was not the case. While there were words explained like floccinaucinihilipilification, agathokakological, the book also deciphered words like troll, quiz, phobia. I loved the style of essays that was used to compose the comprehensive details about the book.

A one-time good read.

It is available on Amazon Kindle Edition and Hardcover.
