0.01% of Wikipedia turned into 5000-page book


Graphic Design student Rob Matthews decided that this valuable knowledge database shoun’tld just be available in digital form, and went about turning part of Wikipedia into a book. We say part because printing the entirety of Wikipedia would probably lock up all printing presses in the world for years.
What Matthews did was to select 437 articles from Wikipedia and get them printed and bound into a hardback book. Even with so few articles the book manages to span 5,000 pages and measures 1ft 7″ thick.
