This pleasant browsing volume, from the host of PBS's Wall Street Week, is a mixed bag of frivolous and useful information. The 175 or so lists range from the silliest laws and regulations to the 20 healthiest places to live to best-performing stocks and bonds and Fortune's ten most- and ten least-admired companies. Lists are mostly from business or government publications like Fortune or the Statistical Abstract, interspersed with opinions from Wall Street Week panelists. Lots of sidebars compare prices for goods and services between 1947 and 1997. The entertainment value, low cost, and reading ease will make this a popular circulating item for public libraries and Rukeyser's TV viewers. It is clearly fun reading but an optional purchase.?Patrick J. Brunet, Western Wisconsin Tech. Coll. Lib., La Crosse
