Rating: Summary: A Wall Of Books In The Palms Of Your Hands Review: I read a rather snooty review of Book One and wondered why an individual like that would bother to read such a book as this? Well, I am not like that person. For me, this series of books is wonderful. Most of all, it satisfies my need for a wide span of general knowledge and also of trivia. There is a personal satisfaction in knowing a little something about a whole lot of things. If you are reading this review, you are the type of person that has heard of most of these summary titles but never read most of them. Maybe you skimmed it in high school or college and wrote a book report on it. Or, the title was on your college "reading list." Maybe your dad read that book when he was a little boy. Read it now! Or, at least the summary. Besides book summaries, there are lots of other little bits of data. I read incessantly and I have used these book summaries to decide on which books I want to read in toto. Perfect for people that expect to wait in an airport or a doctor's office, or outside the mall for your spouse. I even bought a book cover that conceals that it is a "Bathroom Book".
Rating: Summary: Even Better Than The Original Review: It's just brimming with humor and drama, hundreds more of the world's best books trimmed down to easy-to-read two-page summaries. Read "War and Peace" "The Stand," even The Bible in twelve minutes! Dozens of literary classics, as well as classic plays, operas, world religions, amusing quotes, anecdotes, philosophy, trivia galore, Shakespeare, Salinger, Confucious, and every other important author around can be found here. Wonderful for leisure reading, brushing up on your cultural literacy, preparing for a movie, or refreshing your memory about a book you read a long time ago. This book is for any occasion.
