Kurzbeschreibung
Despite unusual subject matter--such as the murkier aspects of politics, current events, business, history, science, art and literature, sex, drugs and death--this book presents hard, substantiated facts with full references.
Synopsis
Can you name five military leaders who were transgendered? Twelve cases of involuntary human experimentation by the US government? How about the four porn novels written by famous authors, 11 books left out of the Bible and over 50 side effects of NutraSweet that have been reported to the FDA? Russ Kick's latest offering delves into the murkier aspects of politics, current affairs, business, history, science, art and literature, sex, drugs, death and more. Despite such unusual subject mater, this book presents hard, substantiated facts with full references.

Strange things indeed!
9. Juni 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
Russ Hicks provides an anarchistic (or at least non-maintsteam) view of the world in his alternative media Book of Lists.
Some of it is current, including commentary on the war in Iraq. From List 31, 23 Quotes Regarding the 2003 Invasion of Iraq: "Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction." - Vice President Dick Cheney, August 26, 2002
Some of it is a spin on religeon. List 64 includes 87+ People Mormons have Baptized by Proxy, including Buddha, Albert Einstein and Joan of Arc.
Some of it is just strange, such as List 42, 9 Visitors Who Died at Disneyland. This includes examples like Mark Maples, the first, death, who was thrown from the Bobsled ride after unlocking the seat belt and standing up.
A lot of this leaves you scratching your head. The book is certainly a subversive assault on the mainstraim. No doubt it's not 100% true, but it's certainly worth the "Ahas", "Could it bes" and "No ways!" that it will generate.

Scary to the Last Drop
3. Juni 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
Well I'm about half way through the book now, and though I must say that I can't put it down, it has been giving me some nightmares. I'm not claiming to believe that the things Russ writes about are true, but they certainly are disturbing. I recommend this book to anyone interested in... "Disinformation".

Eye-catching, previously neglected information
6. September 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Russ Kick has a knack for eye-catching, previously neglected information. There are 36 Corporations That Ripped of the U.S. Government (led by HCA, ripping off America's Health Care System in spectacular fashion). Another: 36 Botched Executions, complete with gory details. How about: 19 Suicide Notes (Male, 74. "I married the wrong nag-nag-nag and I lost my life.") One of my favorites: The 9 US Companies Allowed to Manufacture Illegal Drugs (The Polaroid Corporation makes a powerful psychedelic amphetamine - who knew?)
The book is great taken a few lists at a time over a month or two.
