Description: London-based sociologist Dr Keith Kahn Harris has written about some weighty issues, including the heavy metal music scene and antisemitism, but his latest book sprang out of a fascination with the omnipresent Kinder Surprise Egg. The Babel Message: A Love Letter to Language, sprang out of Kahn-Harris' obsession with the cautionary message included inside every egg, printed on multiple pages and in dozens of languages - WARNING, read and keep: Toy not suitable for children under 3 years. Small parts might be swallowed or inhaled. Khan-Harris is a senior lecturer at Leo Baeck College, an associate lecturer in the Department of Psychosocial Studies at Birkbeck, University of London. He is the author of seven books, including the upcoming title What Does A Jew Look Like?, co-authored with Robert Stothard.
