Forget Slumdog Millionaire & Revolutionary Road, it's all about Baboon Metaphysics.

It's that time we've all ben waiting for, forget the Oscars, the shortlist for the Bookseller's Diagram prize for odd book titles is out.

The nominees are Baboon Metaphysics by Dorothy Dorothy L Cheney and Robert M Seyfarth (University of Chicago Press), Curbside Consultation of the Colon by Brooks D Cash (SLACK Incorporated), The Large Sieve and its Applications by Emmanuel Kowalski (Cambridge University Press) Strip and Knit with Style by Mark Hordyszynski (C&T), Techniques for Corrosion Monitoring by Lietai Yang (Woodhead) and last but not least, the spectacularly named The 2009-2014 World Outlook for 60-milligram Containers of Fromage Frais by Professor Philip M Parker (Icon Group International).

These six made the shortlist, beating of competion from the likes of F**k It, (which I'm actually going to try and read at some point), All Dogs Have ADHD, The Industrial Vagina, Excrement in the Late Middle Ages, Insects Are Just Like You and Me Except Some of Them Have Wings and my personal favourite, Malformed Frogs.
