Rating:  - Well what can I say? Another Guiness World Record BookWell what can I say? It's just another Guiness World Record book no different to all the other years. There is no mistaking that it is a funny book to read as I have found in all of the GWR books, half of their content is stupid records like: the heaviest weight held by a beard; fastest time to slurp ten panacottas the list is endless. But at least there is something usefull and educational in this book like the science and health sections. I have also found that 3D glasses come with this ... Read More Rating: - How many more records will we keep breakingI received the new copy as a Christmas present in 2008, I do love the Guinness world records but that is mainly as I like to use them for reference points in conversation. I am pleased to see that the book is still focused towards the younger market, I believe this is a good idea as many children now spend most of their time excelling at computer games and do not spend as much time reading literature, this book makes it interesting for the younger generations and should keep them interested in the ...

It comes with a pair of glasses which you have to put together yourself. There's loads of interesting facts in it and I can spend hours reading it. Somehow, no matter how many times you go through the pages and keep going through them, you always learn something new! Rating: - Time-honoured favourite - but no 3D specsMy parents had one edition from the early 70's and naturally the layout differs greatly between that old tome and the new version. I've seen quite a few since but I'm not sure I like this up to date one. Yes, there are plenty of facts and figures but I feel they rather jump all across the page in no order so it can be annoying to keep track of what you've read. I feel Guinness are going more for the eye-catching graphics than some imagined bore of the printed word in an ordinary font. ... Read More |
