There is a reason, why this book is so remarkable cheap. First it comes out of the publishing coporation of Random House (Bertelsman) - British Book, reimported from the US. Second it's written in large friendly letters. But to find the words "Do not panic" You Have To Actually Look Inside the Book (It is really worth it!). Third it is slightly inaccurate, still claiming DNA dwells somewhere between London and France. He is very busy for being dead. Maybe he just did it out of tax reasons. The book contains almost every story has to do with the Which famed Hitchhiker's Guide. Almost Because, the radio-scripts are missing. But otherwise, the Trilogy contains all five books, plus an extra story on. To be letter, I recommend this book to anyone who want's to get The Whole Story at once. You might not like the last book, but hey, did not Agrajag warning you? The first books are quietly funny and you might get a deeper understanding of modern culture. Like IBM's first chess computer batteling Kasparov or AltaVista's translating engine and some hidden cross-reference in "Total Recall" (starring the Governator) but this is Someone Else's Problem Entirely.
