It slices, it dices! So how much would you pay? But don't answer because wait, there's MORE!
Uhs. Sorry. Wrong review. My bad.
This book is exactly like the show. Except I can take it into my bathroom and have a nice look without all the wires and risk of electrocution. It really is like reading the history of the country in a way that both informs you and makes you giggle like a girl in the tub without the fear of electrocution.
Also I can guarantee it's the most informative book about American Democracy Inaction that has the all nude Supreme Court review! Don't worry though, their clothes are conviently placed on the next page. For modesty's sake i'm sure.
Not as good as the show, but along much the same lines. Definitely an amusing overview of our form of government and how it works. If you like the show, you should like this. If you don't like the show, why are you even looking at the book?
