review 1: I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads.Informative and hilarious, this book is s reminder of the great capacity humans have for ingenuity. It is a reminder that failure should be mocked good-naturely, but encouraged because not every idea will yield the desired results. I enjoyed the book and I think it's useful to remember that there are many more failures than successes. Thus it's good to see them represented in print. Usually you only get to see the notions that produced results portrayed in the media.
review 2: I got this book this morning from Goodreads First Reads and I have looked through it and read quite a bit of the bad ideas. :) Do far I have found this book completely awesome and a worthwhile read. It's not something I would usua
... morelly go out and buy, but after getting the chance to read it I think I will be buying more books in the same history with a comical twist genre. It's very interesting. I am going to be recommending this book to my family and friends. Possibly across different forums as well. I also recommend that all of you GoodReads members give it a shot as well! less

Juvenile, and sadly not even in a good way.
