"America (the book): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction" is yet another manifestation of Jon Stewart's wittiness. Its 240 pages are full of gems that capture just how wacky our country is, and open the public's eyes to the idiosyncrasies that make America both great and ridiculous.

What makes "America" so hilarious are the laugh out loud special features. The book is arranged in a textbook format, with at least one, if not more, "Were You Aware?" boxes on every page. Each one declares an obscure fact (or fiction) about America. One such box proclaims, "Due to an early typo, America almost became a 'Democrazy.'" Another informs the reader that America was named after the Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci, "which means there was a 50-50 chance that we'd all be living in the United States of Vespucci."

The book is dedicated "To the huddled masses: keep yearnin" and introduced by none other than Thomas Jefferson. There are countless articles written by "The Daily Show" correspondents like Samantha Bee ("Would You Mind If I Told You How We Do It In Canada?") and Ed Helms ("If I Were President/ Congressman/ Supreme Court Justice…"). There are charts with instructions on how to court the media, a "Build your own Democracy" board game, and Discussion Questions after every chapter.

Chapters include "The President: King of Democracy," "The Judicial Branch: It Rules," and "The Future of Democracy: Four Score and Seven Years from Now," among others. There is a special "Election 2004" section that makes equal fun of both candidates. Page after page, Stewart satirizes the country we worship, never failing to elicit laughter.

No one says it better than Abraham Lincoln: "I would certainly read this book if I were alive today, which, for all you geniuses out there, I am not." For “Daily Show” fans, history buffs, or anyone who loves a good laugh, this book is for you.
