About this product

Product Information

In this, the biggest volume of bizarre knowledge ever, seekers of unique trivia will find the answers to many fascinating questions. It includes every possible field, from astronomy to taxidermy, sculpture to sociology. The authors have scoured hundreds of public records, news reports, critical opinions, and statistics to cull the absurd, the great, and the not-so-wonderful from all walks of life. The findings are often humorous, occasionally appalling, sometimes downright strange-but always compelling.

Good packaging, arrived quickly. The only slight issue is that the image used implied the book was signed, but the listing itself never claimed it was signed. I wouldn't say it's completely deceptive, but it is pushing it a little. The price was great either way, so it's inconsequential for this specific listing.

  • Just my opinion

    I first saw this book in one of those magazines that they send to your house, trying to get you to buy their products. I thought, 'I bet I could get it cheaper on ebay.' Most of the books I have ever bought were informative, or self-help, not just for entertainment. If I bought one about someone, it was non-fiction. I would never read or buy a romance book. I'm no spring chicken, so I figured if these books were passed on to my children or grandchildren, they might just learn a thing or two. You can't be too smart or too rich, you know. I have enjoyed reading this book, but I wish they would have broken it down into more categories than they did. Maybe they could have had one whole section for all of the best, one for all of the worst, and one for all of the most unusual, or written 3 ...

  • OUT OF DATE!

    Yes, granted this is 2008, and I am reading a book published in 1994, but I felt like I was reading a book published in 1945. I felt that all the references were to ancient...did we not have any Best, Worst, or Unusual happenings, after 1950? There are some interesting parts, but unless you are over 70, you will not be able to relate first hand....
