Funny -- and Factual 10 Dec 2007
By Philalethes - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Forget all that stuff you've heard about the "new Bonnie and Clyde." Those two are idiots anyway, especially if they didn't realize that this book was written to provide laughs, not to serve as an "Anarchist's Cookbook" for wannabe grifters. Author Jones has an arch, witty style that's lots of fun to read, but she's full of facts, too. The "Would I Lie" sections that end each chapter are well worth the price of admission on their own. These brief run-downs of real-life examples of a given "cheat" from recent and past history are a hoot -- and they show that a lot of research went into this little volume. After a perusal of the whole thing, well, let's just say the record shows that your chances of getting away with evildoing are pretty slim. Oh, and one more thing: I love the elegant design of "The Art of Cheating," complete with ultra-clever cartoons by a New Yorker contributor.

Very funny book! 10 Dec 2007
By Herring Bone - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
I am surprised that so many people are taking this book so seriously. It's a very funny, wry look at the little ways in which the average joe can cheat. Hardly a how-to guide regarding identity theft! An easy, enjoyable, minorly wicked read!
