[url:http://www.socialwave.net/topics/4688]

Join the Social Wave Book Club for a dip into the wild and wonderful world of Jon Stewart and The Daily Show with their book, America (The Book): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction.

Amazon.com writes: "Featuring a foreword by Thomas Jefferson, a Dress the Supreme Court layout, and, oddly enough, a profile of George "The Iceman" Gervin, America (The Book): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction, from Jon Stewart and the writers of the Emmy Award-winning The Daily Show, is by far one of the most irreverent and wittiest (and may we add smartest) political books you're likely to encounter."
