'Strangest' Titles Ever
"In
this,
the
31st
year
of
the
prestigious
award,
never
have
I
found
it
so
problematic
to
pick
a
shortlist
of
just
6.
At
a
time
when
the
economic
climate
is
forbidding
and
cost-cutting
companies
are
ten-a-penny,
I'm
proud
to
report
that
the
British
publishing
industry
has
remained
as
stubborn
in
the
face
of
change
as
ever," the
Telegraph
quoted
Horace
Bent,
from
the
Bookseller
magazine,
as
saying.
"Given the economic gloom, I would not have blamed publishers if they'd decided to slash their lists. But it gives me great pleasure to report that diversity lives!" he added.
The books with the 'Strangest' titles shortlisted this year are as follows:
1. Baboon Metaphysics by Dorothy Dorothy L Cheney and Robert M Seyfarth (University of Chicago Press)
2. Curbside Consultation of the Colon by Brooks D Cash (SLACK Incorporated)
3. The Large Sieve and its Applications by Emmanuel Kowalski (Cambridge University Press)
4. Strips and Knit with Style by Mark Hordyszynski (C&T)
5. Techniques for Corrosion Monitoring by Lietai Yang (Woodhead)
6.The 2009-2014 World Outlook for 60-milligram Containers of Fromage Frais by Professor Phi.
