China’s 1300 Pound Book
by Mike Richard
Quite likely the world’s largest book debuted in China today:

According to GX News:
Currently on display at the first China Printing and Packaging Products Expo, this gigantic book published by Henan Anyang Daily news agency has a dimension of 2.1 x 1.26 x 0.28 meter (length, width, height) and weighs 598 kg. It gives a comprehensive introduction to the Yin Shang culture and its charm.

My first thought: what would Amazon.com charge for shipping?
