I have this book on my pile of books to be read, but spotted this second copy at the Salvo shop for $0.50 and thought it'd be perfect for releasing.

Off you go!

RELEASE NOTES:

dropped this into the blue box upstairs this afternoon

took for a book swap

a book by Michael Moore published in 2001. Although the publishers were convinced it would be rejected by the American reading public after the September 11, 2001 attacks, it spent 50 consecutive days on the New York Times bestseller list (eight weeks at #1) for hardcover nonfiction and is in its 43rd printing. It is generally known by its short title, Stupid White Men. The book is highly critical of recent U.S. government policies in general, and the policies of the Bush administration in particular. Moore's A Prayer to Afflict the Comfortable was originally published in this book. The People's Prayer in this Penguin edition is slightly modified but worth the reading!.

If you're interested in USA politics and social problems, the book is for you. I found the preface about Moore's problems with the publishers the most interesting part. There's also words about recycling, mad cow desease, and other items which can apply for those of us living in the UK and other parts of the British Commonwealth, and maybe the rest of the world too.
