Book Reviews of Uncle John's Supremely Satisfying Bathroom Reader
Book Review: Another Winner from the Bathroom Reader's Institute
Summary: 5 Stars
I own several Uncle John's books. I was very pleased to get the latest (14th) book in this fantastic series. Like all the previous editions, I loved this book for the amazing amount of information from every possible sphere of knowledge: from the thoughts of Socrates to the the history of the bra, from the origins of the familiar phrases and words to the secret Hitler's files, etc. The weakest point in all these books is a lack of an index. It is quite difficult to find a specific piece of information since the articles are not arranged in any particular order and the table of contents is done by topic and not in alphabetical order. The task of looking up information is getting even harder if one is not sure what book to look in. Recently, it took me quite a long time to find the article on the philosophy of the food display in the supermakets. I believe that a good index would be appreciated by all faithful Uncle John's readers, including me.
