It's a book about a newspaper column where readers ask questions and the columnist answers them with a tone that is both professional and casual.
The book has questions, and the book has answers. I suppose the only reason it could get *less* than five stars is if there were no questions or no answers. The author managed to include both of these elements therefore I have no idea how you could be disappointed by the book.

A collection of Cecil Adams' Straight Dope columns - he answers all sorts of cultural, scientific and occasionally just weird questions. This collection also references the online message board (then found at AOL) - there's a couple of names mentioned that are still active members... :^)
