Apparently, this edition 'includes exclusive new introduction and epilogue'.

The blurb:

''Hysterically funny. The angrier Moore gets, the funnier he gets. Sensational'
San Francisco Chronicle

Michael Moore - thorn in the side of corporate America, scourge of political hypocrisy and all-round ass-kicker of those that need a boot in the behind - comes out swinging ...

STUPID WHITE MEN tells you everything you need to know about how the great and the good screw us over. It reveals - among other things - how 'President' Bush stole an election aided only by his brother, cousin, his dad's cronies, electoral fraud and tame judges; how the rich stay rich while forcing the rest of us to live in economic fear; and how politicians have whored themselves to big business. Not to mention providing fascinating details on just how stupid Bush is, a convincing case for male obscolence and a fabulous new use for Whites Only signs!

A hilarious must-read for anyone who wants to know what the con is and how 'they' get away with it, STUPID WHITE MEN is only available uncensored because public pressure forced the original publishers to publish a book they felt was too hot to handle. Now it's time to find out why. It's so damn funny it'll make you cry.

'Caustic, breakneck, tell-it-like-it-is ... He's a genuine populist; a twenty-first-century pamphleteer' Observer

'A really great, hilarious, rollicking, fantastic read'
Newsnight Review

'Savagely hilarious'
Irish Times'

This is a paperback copy from Penguin, published in 2002. The book was originally published in the US in 2001.

I love this book ... !! I'm a Michael Moore fan and I think this is my favorite among those of his books that I have read (almost but not quite all of them). It's very funny, it's articulate, insightful and has lots of valuable information. Everybody should read this book.

This book was originally bought somewhere in Norway - it has a Norwegian price tag (OK, I can only say for sure that it's Scandinavian, but the price amount is very Norwegian :-) showing that it originally cost 109 crowns.

I bought this book at a flea market at Torshov special ed school in Oslo on Saturday, April 14th, 2007.

RELEASE NOTES:

I gave this to a coworker today to pass on to her sister who is going to Vietnam in a couple of days. :-) She has kindly agreed to release the book there for me. Watch this space, updates will follow ... :-)

RELEASE NOTES:

The book was left by my coworker's sister :-) in the book exchange shelf in the cafe. Not sure of the time.

Here's hoping Michael Moore will appeal to some backpacker or other ... ;-)

My boyfriend found this book on a bookshelf in a Bar/ Restaurant called 'Tam Tam' in Vientam. We were really excited by the idea, we had never seen anything like it before. Now that I am in Saigon and have completed the book, I shall find a suitable place to leave it so that another fellow traveller can enjoy it! OR....i may even take it across the boarder into Cambodia! Thanks for the fun experience. Claire, 11th April 2008
