Editorial Review:The award-winning World Trivia reveals many amazing and amusing facts of culture, politics and geography around the world. Distinctly different from most trivia books, it illustrates a broad range of cultures and political realities with geographic and map information.

Sparse, random geography trivia questions (less than 60 in the book!!!). There's more cartoonish illustration than trivia in this weak excuse for a trivia book.

I purchased this book for an online group I moderate. The only gripes I've received from participants is that they are geographically inept and the questions make them feel dumb.

I was very dissapointed with this book. It is not worth the money if you really are looking to learn some world trivia. It would not even make a good reference book. To be honest I am not sure why Amazon even sells it, the content is very weak. Save your money buy something else, or go to the library. I can not even imagine what the publishers were thinking when they decided to publish this book, truly a dissapointment.
