The oddest book, however, is "The Mushroom in Christian Art", whose thesis appears to be that Jesus was a personified mushroom.

I had assumed that Poo was the name of the author, but it turns out to be Thai for 'crab' - and therefore a useful cookbook. It does raise the question of why the publishers translated 'Cooking With' but not 'Poo'.

It's the "volume 2" that does it for me.
