  Variously described as 'the cleverest and wittiest work of the year, or bastard century even' ( Melody Maker ) or 'the funniest wisest book ever written' ( The Times ), The Onion team's first book, Our Dumb Century , was widely and hugely praised. Their second tome delivers more hilarious satire in the same vein as: 'Muhammed Ali KO's Ronald Reagan In Nursing Home Scuffle , Drugs Win Drugs War , or Martin Luther King: I Had A Really Weird Dream Last Night . The strength of The Onion lies in the fact that the text underneath the brilliant headlines is just as funny. As Nicholas Lezard said of Our Dumb Century : 'I cannot imagine a funnier book being written - well, ever' ( Guardian ).
