Where do we come from? Who created us? Why are we here? These are questions that have sporadically interested people since the dawn of time, but whose answers have continually eluded us. Now in their new book, Jon Stewart and "The Daily Show" writing staff (who include the team behind "The Onion") tackle them and many more with their trademark wit, irreverence and intelligence. They will take us on an intellectual journey through time - a quest back to the very moment of creation - that will maybe, just maybe help us figure out exactly how and why everything got so irretrievably f****ed up. From applications for genetic reconstitution by aliens to the meanings of anatomy, gender or nourishment, every aspect of life on this planet is reexplored, reexamined and made newly hilarious in this book.

About the Author:
Jon Stewart was born in New York and lives with his wife and kids in New York City. He has won various Emmys of his own and hosted the Oscars twice. The Daily Show team includes Ben Karlin (The Onion), Steve Colbert (The Colbert Show) Samantha Bee, John Hodgman and Demetri Martin (Important Things)
From AudioFile:
Jon Stewart offers a hilarious satiric guide to the planet Earth and the human race for aliens who will someday discover this planet when we cease to inhabit it. Although he provides most of the narration, he is supported by Daily Show cast members Samantha Bee, Wyatt Cenac, Jason Jones, and John Oliver, as well as Sigourney Weaver, who narrates chapter and section headings. Stewart and the Daily Show cast give ample evidence of their sparkling comedic timing, despite occasional changes in sound quality for some of the supporting cast. With this group narrating, it seems extremely doubtful that any listener will be able to avoid laughing out loud at some point. J.L.K. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
