Book Reviews of Why Do Men Have Nipples? Hundreds of Questions You'd Only Ask a Doctor After Your Third Martini
Book Review: Waste of Time, Space, and Money
Summary: 2 Stars
Did I miss something here? I read the whole book (okay, ALMOST the whole book -- I admit I skipped over the nonsensical instant messaging transcipts that seem to make up the bulk of the text, as well as the silly chapter intros) and I wasn't floored. Or even wowed. Or even that impressed.
There's nothing in this book that you can't find out on your own with an Internet hookup and a brain cell or two to rub together. Most of it is rehashed medical journal articles, and the rest is puffery. And a lot of it was ridiculous! Any mom can tell you that YES, sugar makes kids act up -- even if it isn't scientifically "proven." Any teenager can tell you YES, you can pop certain kinds of zits with virtually no ill effects (what was this weirdo story about causing abcesses in your sinus cavities by squeezing your pimples??? I have NEVER in my 38 years heard of such a thing).
The book seemed to be written more for the authors' enjoyment and entertainment than anything else. Parts of it were downright rude, and the rest was either worthless or unbelievable. Sorry to be so harsh, but I really expected more.
Book Review: Hilarious Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I actually bought this as a Christmas gift for my boss. He read portions to us at the office and then shared it around. It is a great read especially if you need a life in your life but you may only have a few minutes to read at a time. Just a funny but true book. Book Review: Pretty fun book to read
Summary: 4 Stars
Has a lot of information which is very interesting. After every question provides a description in a way that anyone could understand. It other words, they do not use big words to confuse when it comes to explaining different systems in our bodies. I already bought the other book "Why do men fall asleep after sex?".Book Review: Great Christmas gift for son-in-law
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this as a gift for my son-in-law and the first thing that he said was I almost bought this book!Book Review: Great gift for anyone in the medical field
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a hilarious book and a great gift for any one in the medical field or who wants to be. It's a wonderful balance of humor and real information and makes for a fun read. I wouldn't recomend it for people under 14 though because there is some somewhat explicit info and words.
