Eat The Rich: Can Economics Be This Funny?

Date of Review:  Feb 29, 2000
Review: P.J. O'Rourke is back with his latest wry insights. His previous works have attacked foreign countries (Holidays In Hell) and politics (Parliament of Whores, Republican Party Reptile), among others, and have been notable in their hysterical, canny...

Hurrah for capitalism

Date of Review:  Sep 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: Intelligent, below the belt humor that rarely misses its mark.
Review: I knew I was a P.J. O'Rourke fan when I read his book "Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence, and a Bad Haircut." I relate to the follies of a liberal youth.

This book offered examples of good and bad capitalism, my favorite line of which...

The usual O'Rourke fare

Date of Review:  Sep 16, 1999
Review: Most O'Rourke fans (and enemies) of my acquaintance had the same opinion on this one: worth reading, but far from a favourite. He's political (as usual), witty (as usual), but the old formula is getting a little tired.

His chapters on...

O'Rourke's Latest Must-Read!

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 1999
Review: P. J. O'Rourke has done it again! I have followed his writing from his National Lampoon days, through his articles for The Rolling Stone, and his highs and lows as a free-lance writer of quasi-political tracts.

Parliament of Whores and...

Economics with an Attitude!

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 1999
Review: This is a really funny book. O?Rourke travels the world and offers his witty and sarcastic observations on various economic realties. O?Rourke may admit to be a beginner in the field of economics and does not provide any spellbinding revelations,...
