Inhaltsangabe:

Wenn Sie wissen wollen, was oder wer der Beste, Schlimmere, Reichste, Wildeste, Tödlichste oder einfach Größte von praktisch allem war, dann ist dies das Buch für Sie, mit über 600 Listen zu den unterschiedlichsten Themen. Lob für das Buch "The Times" - Genauso viele Bilder, genauso viel Farbe, aber irgendwie erfüllender in seinem Wunsch, 10 von allem zu präsentieren, während Guiness mit einem auskommt.

Rezensionen: YA?Ash has gone The Guinness Book of World Records one better. In this colorful title, he has amassed thousands of statistics on topics of popular interest, listing the 10 most (or least) common, popular, expensive, or best in each category. Despite the British bias and the author's ready admission that certain categories (populations, sporting records, movie/music entries, award winners, etc.) become instantly if not annually outdated, his treatment of popular-culture tidbits is as accurate as can be expected. The wide range of categories reported spans from the natural sciences (the Earth, universe, and human body), to entertainment (music, stage, radio, sports, and travel). Bright, splashy, full-color photos enliven the columnar text, as do relevant "Did you know" sidebars. Ash's tongue-in-cheek book is akin to David Letterman gone straight, and this bona fide Top Ten of Everything will delight and inform YAs in every kind of library.
