My rating: 2 of 5 stars
There are facts to amuse your friends and gross them out as well as fact that make you go hmm. There’s some that make you wonder and others are so obvious that they’re just statements. I don’t know how old this book is but some of these facts have surely been superseded by now. Very few of them are from this century, and a lot of them may be handy for pub trivia and to wow your friends, but you can’t rely on them. A bit of research will tell you that some of the are urban myths. Some of them are just useless just to get you to do daft things like stick a finger in your glass of beer. And there’s even facts which contradict each other just a page apart. There is an attempt at themes but the layout causes the narration to fall at an odd tangent and subjects will often repeat themselves. Even the book itself deems it to be worthless in its conclusion.
