Book Reviews of New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer
Book Review: A Funny Look at Many Hot Topics of General Appeal
Summary: 4 Stars
Bill Maher is among the wittier political commentators that are not completely aligned with any partly line (although he leans to the left). As a comedian, he provides content intended both for humor and for meaning; a strategy that is brilliantly used in his book New Rules.
One doesn't have to agree with all his views to appreciate his reasoning. In this book, Maher covers such a wide variety of topics (many non political as well) that one will inevitably find a topic to agree with. The book is filled with very short segments making it easy for short readings or something to pound through in a matter of hours. No matter how you choose to read it, unless you already have negative feelings toward Maher and his humor, you will likely enjoy this book and find yourself laughing even when he deviates from your own personal values.
