Product Description

Everyone knows that Jeremy Clarkson finds the world a perplexing place – after all, he wrote a bestselling book about it. Yet despite the appearance of The World According To Clarkson, things don’t seem to have improved much. However, Jeremy is not someone to give up easily and he’s decided to have another go. In And Another Thing, our exasperated hero discovers that: • He inadvertently dropped a bomb on North Carolina • We’re all going to explode at the age of 62Russians look bad in Speedos. But not as bad as we do. • No one should have to worry about being Bill Oddie’s long lost sisterHe should probably be nicer about David Beckham Thigh-slappingly funny and – as ever – in your face, Jeremy Clarkson bursts the pointless little bubbles of the idiots while celebrating the special, the unique and the sheer bloody brilliant …

Riled thing4
The first book that collected Jeremy Clarksons' columns for the Times, 'born to be riled', was well written and funny but it was also a bit patchy. Some articles were not up to much. With this new collection,(the 3rd ), we get to see a more mature and secure Clarkson, not everything has to shock and his arguments are better thought out and argued.
That's not to say that he's softened with time, in fact if anything his improved ability to argue his point makes him far sharper and those objects of his displeasure get a far more heated and professional roasting, and what a collection of twits and annoyances Mr Clarkson aims for, people who think their credit cards define them, parents who choose daft names for their sprogs, doom laden weather reports and of course the odd motoring referrance and more are all dealt with wit and worrying plausability. Added to this is a sense of middle age uneasiness that it's all gone a bit potty out there and can we please have some sanity back?
The articles are all pretty short so if one doesn't work for you there'll be another one along shortly.
Clarkson's getting better at his penmanship and this is easily his best work yet. If you're not a big fan of top gear or mr Clarksons' telly persona don't let that put you off, he is a witty and opinionated writer who will either have you nodding with agreement or snorting in derision at his view of the world, either way he engages the mind and has a knack of entertaining even when putting forward totally crackpot ideas. You certainly wont be bored.

Hilarious5
Jeremy Clarson's And Another Thing, is a book I bought when I was in the UK last fall. His writing is so entertaining, to the point, sarcastic, blunt, and so funny-that I actually understood his rationale on how the world works....his writing style is exactly like he speaks.
Get this book because you will learn something, revisit your own points of view, and have a hilarious time doing so!

Clarkson - love him or hate him he tells the truth, however painful it is to the "mentalists"5
I like Jeremy Clarkson; so he's the smug git on TopGear and he's done nothing for the Denim industry, and sometimes his middle-class pompousness plays to the vanguard and makes him a wee bit aggravating, but I still like him despite his faults, and it proves he is human after all.

What he does have is a crystal clear view of what Britain has become; a farce. He says it (and writes it for that matter = ) ) like so many of us think it, but dare not say it, for fear of being labelled by the loony, screechy, sandal-wearing coalition, as racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic Daily Mail reading B.N.P worshippers. Clarkson pulls no punches, takes no prisoners, and leaves the politically correct killjoys with a bloody-nose. This book provides you with hoards of belly-laugh moments that will leave the other sweaty passengers or waiting-room hypochondriacs questioning your sanity or enquiring where you got your tickly underpants from. Bare in mind the hard-cover edition is fairly large and hefty (a bit like the man himself), and may not fit into your DKNY bum-bag or the glove-compartment of your Trabant.

If you like your humour politically incorrect and your politicians ridiculed, then this is the book for you. If however, you prefer your humour leftwing and therefore non-existent, and your politicians sapping milk and making purring and meowing noises on awful reality TV, you'd be better off spending your money on a new brightly-coloured cagoule and another month's subscription to Smug Socialist or The Guardian.

If only we could talk him into forming his own political party...
