Title: Only for the obscure.
Product review: I bought this for my friend who is 37. I thought it would be fun for her to relive her youth a bit. I was expecting the encyclopedia to have information, whimsical details, pictures, etc. on typical 80's pop culture. First of all, the writing style leaves a lot to be desired. If I wanted to be bored, I would read my DSM. The bigger problem, is that the content is about obscure 80's bands and performers that no child of the eighties has heard of. I would say less than ten percent of the information is relevant or interesting. This is not what most would consider Classic 80's--more like who the heck are these people 80's.
