Summary: Fluff
Review: This is a collection of very easy to read magazine articles.

Some of them are quite good but overall the standard isn't that high - it seems that P.J. O'Rouke's name is being used to sell this book, he is not a major contributor.

With some notable exceptions, there is isn't much depth to most of the articles although some are quite interesting. Most of it is just journalists writing for the sake of writing. Useful in a waiting room, or reading on short train/bus rides.

This book will leave you with a feeling of being unsatisfied.
