Guinness World Records 2011 Book

The Guinness World records are compulsive reading by young and old alike at Christmas and the 2011 Edition is no exception. Its stunning holographic cover looks like a fireball of flames and sets the tone for the explosion of new and updated record breakers. The book is fully indexed and each photograph is new and includes new and currently topical themes such as: X Games and extreme sports; the 75th anniversary of TV; 3D Cinema; Gadgets and Technology; Top sporting records; a city by city guide tour of world records. The presentation of the records is exciting and eclectic and the table of contents clearly separates the themes of the records which includes Live Records; Space; Earth; Living Planet; Human Beings; Human Society; Animal Magic; Popular Culture; Engineering and Technology; Sports. The Guinness World Records is fully indexed, so if you have a burning question about a particular record, you can search in the index to see if it is there. Some questions have been raised by some reviewers about the books recent failure to be more of a consumer driven annual, rather than a definitive guide is a worthy criticism. However, it does have a massive appeal to the pre-teen age group who also want to be entertained and have a bit of fun too!Read More
