Reviews

Chris writes: Are you going to buy this book? Yes -> a wise choice. No -> why not? (a) because I'm not in the habit of buying flowchart guides to alien pickup lines, heavy-metal band names or which religion offers me the best afterlife and the whole thing just sounds a bit stupid to me -> probably fair enough but then again flowcharts are intended for the reluctant decision-maker, (b) I don't know anything about yet because you've stuck this silly flow-chart at the start of your review instead of telling me about the book -> also probably fair enough. American standup comic and book designer, Doogie Horner clearly has far too much time on his hands. Compressed into its hilarious 160 pages are enough flowcharts, pictograms, diagrams, scatter-graphs and piecharts to explain everything, (wrestling finishing moves, whether or not you have or are an evil twin or how to win any argument) or else induce Spontaneous Information Overload (SIO), whichever comes first. Embrace your inner nerd!
