Starred Review. Eight-time Emmy-winner Stewart America: The

內容簡介:
Where do we come from? Who created us? Why are we here? These
questions have puzzled us since the dawn of time, but when it
became apparent to Jon Stewart and the writers of The Daily

massive mission to write a book that summed up the human race: What
we looked like; what we accomplished; our achievements in society,
government, religion, science and culture -- all in a tome of 238
pages with lots of color photos, graphs and charts.
After two weeks of hard work, they had their book. EARTH The
Book is the definitive guide to our species. With their trademark
wit, irreverence, and intelligence, Stewart and his team
posthumously answer all of life''s most hard-hitting questions,
completely unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity, or
even accuracy.
