5.0 out of 5 stars An All Time Favourite, 11 Oct 2006
By J. Chippindale (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
What can one say about a book that has almost become an institution, except that it is better than ever. All the photographs are new and there are 1500 new and updated records in the book.

This is a book for young and old alike and not just for those who are interested in records for records sake. It is invaluable for crosswords and quizzes and a good read generally. Instead of the usual socks, ties, or scarves this Christmas, why not buy someone this book. I am sure it will be more appreciated than the things mentioned.

You can also find the answers to some of those irritating questions that sit at the back of your mind. Some of the more quirky questions answered in the book are: What is the largest thing ever removed from a human skull? Who is the world's most popular stand up comedian? How many cows have been killed by a single bolt of lightning?

It is also a good present for those young teenagers who seem to feel it is uncool to read a book and there are lots of them about. I don't think they will be able resist this book and if it gets them on the path to enjoying a good book, so much the better.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book remains an essential reference tool., 2 Mar 2007
By Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
The best bit about taking delivery of the latest edition of "Guinness World Records" is the discovery of new information about the largest, tallest, fastest or whatever. As with every new edition of this book, many records from previous editions are removed in order to provide space for those which are included for the very first time. In other words, this is not an up-dated version of Guinness World Records 2006 to which a few more records have been added. This is a new book.

Every edition of Guinness World Records will always remain an excellent reference source - but you will need several editions to be certain of finding exactly what it is you require.

On the other hand, if you are simply curious about records, there are many in this particular edition that were never intended. Whilst it might be every Athlete's intention to break the world record in his or her particular discipline, it was never intended that a certain person would have an entry in this book because their's was the skull from which the largest ever object was removed. Gruesome? No, not at all. Fascinating? Yes, most definitely.

It's a very interesting book, but you see the longest surviving person with a stomach tube (with photos), and a hand with no fingers, and the longest p*nis... not for yung children!
