Rock This!

Book excerpt: The National Bestseller--now in trade paperback! "Rock This! ought to be required reading for American citizenship or high school graduation." --Entertainment Weekly From today's hottest stand-up comic--heir to Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy and known for his Emmy Award-winning HBO Specials and The Chris Rock Show--comes this edgy, no-holds-barred humor book about race, relationships, and politics. "Everyone wants a piece of the Rock." --USA Today "Rock doesn't just make you laugh; he makes you think." --Vibe "Unlike so many comedians' books, this one isn't a wispy flight through the land of whimsy. It's closer to a hip sociology primer, with direct hits on such subjects as the difference between white skin magazines and black ones." --Vanity Fair "Chris Rock is probably the funniest and smartest comedian working today." --Caryn James, The New York Times
