Book Reviews of Guinness World Records 2007 (Guinness Book of Records)
Book Review: A fine book. Some other reviewers need lessons in tolerance!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was surprised by how few stars this edition received from readers--I am glad I read the reviews, because I noticed that one reader gave one star, yet gave a glowing review (she just didn't use the pull-down menu correctly). Also, some other readers panned it because it mentioned the surgeon who " performed the most gender-reassignment surgeries," and they were offended by it. The book is INCREDIBLY tame, compared to most television shows these days, and even the pictures of the person with the most tattoos, most piercings, etc. were only on ONE page of the book! Isn't the Guinness Book supposed to be shocking? I remember the guy who wore a beard of bees when I was a kid, and being surprised and shocked by it because it was new...this is no different. The readers who pooh-poohed this edition are, in my opinion, expressing homophobic viewpoints. This volume is guaranteed to please everyone, it looks super-cool, and was a bargain gift, too!! I bought 3.
