Don't be put off by the title. A great book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Passing Time in the Loo Volume 1 (Paperback)
While this book might at first seem to be aimed at constipated men - or at least those who always take something to read in the loo with them - it's really ideal for both sexes and should be on every coffee table in the land [not to mention dentists' waiting rooms]. Packed with bite-size chunks of information, anecdotes, reviews of classic novels, biographies of famous people ... it's great. If you really want to take the title literally, my advice is to eat nothing but bananas for a month and work your way through this book in the little boy's [or girl's] room during your marathon sessions there. If you still have any friends left with your strange toilet habits, you'll impress their socks off with what you know about, well ... everything!

Brilliant! Worth it's weight in gold. (And it's heavy!),
By A Customer
This review is from: Passing Time in the Loo (Paperback)
This book contains a summary of just about every topic that ever comes up in any conversation. Vast trivia, biographies of famous people, summaries of classic novels, ways to improve vocabulary, management guide, personal effectiveness, general knowledge, and that's not even vaguely close to all. My most valued book without a doubt. It's very well-researched, well presented and absolutely ideal for a gift. Don't be put off my the title - this book is basically an insightful summary of everything. I'm off to buy another copy just in case...

brilliant pick up and put me down book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Passing Time in the Loo Volume 1 (Paperback)
This is exactly what the title states. One great doorstop of a paperback for those 1 to 20 minutes bouts of solitude wherever you are. Makes a great gift for the culture minded. Perhaps a bit too American in places but quite acceptable. Can't wait for volume 2.
