Rating:  Summary: Quirky, funny, and a great party game! Review: At first glance, a book solely about the middle finger seems a bit overdone. A bit unnecessary. A bit...vulgar. But after second, third, and fourteenth glance, you'll find yourself on the floor with laughter. It's great as a party game, too, where you can flash pictures of famous celebrities flipping you off, and see who can do their best imitation. It's fun! Check it out!
Rating:  Summary: Totally great and silly Review: Did you ever stop to think that if you gave someone the "thumbs up" in Italy it would have a less than desired effect? Nay, it would be detrimental. Instead of encouraging and rewarding its recipient, the upturned thumb is in fact a rude command, beseeching whomsoever sees it to do unspeakable things with their thumb: things requiring the use of a handy wipe when finished. This and other extremely interesting and useful facts can be gleaned by the readers of this highly insightful monograph. I give it one finger up!
Rating:  Summary: I routinely flip off people who don't own this book. Review: I bought this book when it first came out and have read it roughly seventeen times. Whenever I walk into someone's home and they do not have this book on their coffee table, I immediately flip them off in all the international variations I learned from THE FINGER. This book is simply that good.The delights of THE FINGER begin with its cover, which is a hologram of some sort obviously developed by Lucasfilm Ltd. specifically for this application. The results of Lucasfilm's efforts are astounding: This is the only book in history that actually flips you off just for picking it up. You will probably spend a day just playing with the book and staring at its cover before you even crack it open. But inside are 104 full-color pages of sheer joy. I won't spoil the book's pleasures for you here. Suffice it to say that everything you've heard is true.
