This book is emphatically NOT for any one who is serious about Bob. It's just another of the plethora of attempts to capitalize on the man's genius by attaching their name to a title. For a clue, this is part of a series entitled 'Popular Culture & Philosophy'. It is the publisher's 17th volume which should illuminate their priorities. Here's a sampling of some of their earlier efforts: 'Seinfeld &...', 'Superheros &...','The Atkins Diet &...'. If that hasn't wetted your mouth yet, here's what's in preparation: 'Harley-Davidson &...', 'Poker &...'. Get my gest. If a bunch of predictable babblers from Tin Pan Alley is your idea of a good read get this book quick. If however you are like me and think of Dylan as 'complete unto' himself and are sickened by all these sychophants trying to grab a piece of him simply to elevate their own 'position & place', keep this silly offering far far away from your real Dylan books.
