World's shortest book : ウィキペディア英語版 | World's shortest book The world's shortest book was a joke template that has been popular since the end of World War II. The reference template was ethnic in nature with typical examples including: "Italian War Heroes" "German Comedians" "Blacks I've met Yachting" and "Light Jewish Cuisine." Another template consists of a book title and an author, which when paired together would be nonsensical. An example would be "''Theory of Racial Harmony'', by George Wallace" (the gist of the joke being that George Wallace was famous for his racial bigotry).〔Randy Allen Harris (1993) "The Linguistics Wars", ISBN 0-19-509834-X, (p. 201 )〕 A related joke template is the generic book title "Everything that X knows about Y", the book being entirely composed of blank pages. Examples include the (fictitious) books "Everything the average man knows about women", "Everything sports club owners know about on-field tactics", "Everything politicians know about how to run an economy", "Things Better than Boobs" and "Team Red Victorious Captains". ==References==
