What is this year's stocking filler book?

[OccamsLadyshave]

I need a book for my dad. Can't think of anything else to get him.

He's previously enjoyed things like Lynn Truss, science books, puzzle and comedy type books.

There's usually a few around at this time of year. Any ideas?

I've just picked up the 2015 Guiness Bookf of Records for DS. DF liked the Devil's Dictionary.

When you say "science books", would one of the New Scientist ones be any good? They tend to bring out a new one each year, so plenty to choose from

Thanks. New Scientist is a good idea. I also just came across the Chris Hadfield book with pictures from the space station. Might go with that.

Well, maybe not highbrow, but I've got my dad 50 Sheds Of Grey - he loves sheds! Spends a lot of time pottering in his, and enjoys a good root through ours when he visits
