It's time to jump out of the handbag and take control of the lead. From the same kennel as The Dangerous Book for Boys, this hilarious doggy equivalent barks one simple question: What's happened to us?! Designer dog beds? Organic gluten free gourmet doggie biscuits? Spa treatments? Everyone likes to be pampered now and then - but isn't there more to being a dog than wearing a mini cashmere sweater and riding around in a Louis Vuitton handbag? What about the simple pleasures of life - feeling the wind in your fur, digging up the grass beneath your paws, smelling another dog's bottom? Isn't that part of the great joy of being a dog? This book is for good dogs, bad dogs, and the millions of people who love them, either way, but owners will no doubt recognize their own lovable pets, and maybe themselves, in these pages. After all, so many people talk to their dogs, they might as well read to them, and learn a little something in the process. Chapters include: Foul Smells Every Dog Should Roll In, What's Edible?, How to Bury a Bone, Building a Bed out of Laundry, Escaping the Lead, Dogs in Literature, Courageous Dogs in History, Formal Rules of Fetch, Enhancing Your Walk and Amazing Bath Time Escapes. The Dangerous Book for Boys tapped into a male desire to recapture a back-to-basics sense of fun. Now, a boy's sense of fun is perfectly fine, but a dog's sense of fun is hilarious. Leg-humping, bottom-sniffing and tail-chasing - these are not just the bedrock of dog life; they are the bedrock of comedy.

Scott Sherman has taken it upon himself to compile a list of 50 Oy-vey inducing members of the tribe--from politics, entertainment and white collar crime--who make it tougher than it already "is "to be a Jew these days. Notables include:

Barbara Streisand: Mere presence convinces every untalented Jew they can become a star... and too much with the politicking Who elected you?

Judge Judy: Who thought it was a good idea to give a Jewish grandmother a television show in which her opinions are legally binding? Releasing the wrath of bubbie onto the world is a cruel, cruel thing to do.

Eliot Spitzer: Will Mr. Spitzer's dalliances and indiscretions prevent Jews from pursuing law degrees? Of course not. We are, if anything, a litigious people.

Leonard Nimoy: A Jew playing a pointy-eared halfalien? Everybody thinks we're strange and foreign enough as it is

Bernie Madoff: Where to begin Life is hard enough without having to be concerned that your esteemed brethren are really sleeper-schmucks lying in wait, biding their time for the perfect moment to completely ruin your life.

Laura Shlessinger: Referred to herself in a "Los Angeles Times Magazine "profile as "a prophet." Let's be nice and call that a stretch.
