You may remember some months back (15 April)I reported on the results of the annual Diagram Prize, which is given to the Oddest Title of the Year - last year's winner was 'The Stray Shopping Carts of North America: A Field Guide to Identification'. The Bookseller a couple of weeks back reported on some of the entries coming in and I thought I'd cheer up your coming week with a couple of them:
Squid Recruitment Dynamics, by P G Rodhouse
Cheese Problems Solved, by P McSweeney
Glory Remembered: Wooden Headgear of Alaska Sea Hunters, by Lydia T Black
and my current favourite:
If You Want Closure in Your Relationship, Start with your Legs
Ah, if only I'd had a book like that to advise me in my younger days ...
