Summary: Needs a little refining.
Comment: I liked a lot of the funny pictures and diagrams that really look like old text book illustrations. I think they need to do an updated edition with some better ideas though. There are also some "ways to waste your working time" that are repeated a few times although worded diffently. I know one of the things to do is to count things that have been repeated in the book, but still, thats cheating! :)

Summary: Surprise content
Comment: I bought this book intending it to be a joke "gag" gift for my boss. The synopsis makes it sound benign enough with suggestions like dialing your own phone # or getting your calculator to spell words. Even "xeroxing various body parts" sounds harmless. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that one of the ways to waste time is to imagine various sexual positions. This suggestion is accompanied by several fully illustrated pictures of a couple in sexual positions. Am I offended? No. But am I going to give this to my boss? I don't think so! I learned a lesson. If you want a book as a gift, & you aren't absolutely sure of the content, you're better off buying from a book store where you can actually touch the book (& look through it) before you buy.
