在上周英国畅销书排行榜上， 《吉尼斯世界记录2010》再次横扫所有类别排行榜，而且销量比前一周还有所上升，达4万2千本以上，比上周多销6千本。 在非小说类精装本排行榜上，BBC Top Gear 主持 Jeremy Clarkson 的传记 Driven to Distraction 升到了第一名。Jeremy Clarkson 是个有意思的名人，在公众中的接受程度很极端：有不少人喜欢他“政治不正确”的姿态，开高耗油的车、口无遮拦、大男子主义；同时不少环保人士和女性主义者非常讨厌他。与此同时，他的自传一本接一本地出，每本都能成为畅销书。 好像这还不够，由Jeremy Clarkson主持的 T ...

Having said that and having now completed Everything’s Eventual, I have not been let ...
