1.		Curious Folks Ask: 162 Real Answers on Amazing Inventions, Fascinating Products, and Medical Mysteries from FT Press Price: $11.77 Customer Review: I found the book to contain a list of decent questions but ultimately the answers were lacking.

13.		Introduction to the Thermodynamics of Materials from Taylor & Francis Price: $46.93 Customer Review: This book is just plain awful.
