The World According to Clarkson Volume 3 by Jeremy Clarkson

"THE notion of going to the lavatory without something to read," Jeremy Clarkson tells us in this book, "is simply incomprehensible." Well, the next time you go to the loo, I advise you to take this, his latest collection of columns. Or perhaps not — the laughter they provide comes in short, sharp, gutsy bursts. Here, the Clarkson persona is buffed to perfection — a man who thinks everyone in the world is going mad, except for him. Funny if you believe him; just as funny if you don't.

Synopsis by Foyles.co.uk

The publication of "The World According to Clarkson" in 2004 launched a multi-million-copy bestselling phenomenon. But to no avail. Jeremy's one-man war on crimes against common sense has not yet been won. And our hero's still scratching his head at the madness of it all. But it's not all bad. He's learned a little along the way, including: why binge drinking is good for you; the worst word in the English language; the remarkable secret of eternal youth; the pleasure and pain of middle-aged drumming; the problem with America; and, how to dispose of a seal. For anyone who's ever been driven to wonder just what is the matter with people these days, "For Crying Out Loud" is the perfect riposte. Surprising, fearless and always laugh-out-loud funny, Clarkson's back and he's got a point.
