Format:Paperback
This is a fabulous book for the young and old. It's interesting! It's funny! It also answers almost everything you ever dreamed, thought, or wondered about. I myself couldn't put this book down. I looked forward to reading it all day. With this book you'll wonder no more. I'd recomend it to people who enjoy things that are so stupid they're funny. Have you ever wondered how they get the M on the M+M? Or if a chicken can really run around with it's head cut off. Well if if your answers to those questions are both yes read this book as soon as possible!
Format:Paperback
Supposedly this book is for folks who don't have a strong science background. Yet it contains quite a few factual erors. Also there are spots where Zotti becomes facetious rather than informative without expressly telling you he is joking and not relating facts. If you are not already familiar with the topics covered you will end up misinformed. The book gives the impression that Zotti is tired of standing in Cecil's shadow. Sadly, he shows neither the wit nor the knowledge required to step into the light.
Format:Paperback
This is my favorite book. Once you start reading it, you can't put it down. Some of the things it tells you about you could have a masters degree and not know. A very fun book to read. He even adds humor to it. I'd recommend it for children about nine and up. Even then they probably wouldn't lose their interest.
