Synopsis
Using Darwin's "survival of the fittest" concept to trumpet triumphs of human ineptitude, this collection of absurd news vignettes recounts colossal errors in judgment that led to death--a process the editor defends for its effectiveness in removing morons from the gene pool.

Publisher's Note
A satirical "award" celebrating the worst traits of humanity features the man who used a cigarette lighter to check his gas level, the surfers who celebrated an oncoming hurricane with a beach party, the scatter-brained terrorist who opened his own letter bomb (and scattered his own brains) among other stories of human idiocy.

   THE DARWIN AWARDS, Evolution In Action, by Wendy Northcutt is a 327-page hardcover book with dustjacket and is in very nice condition. Dj has slight shelfwear. Contents are tightly bound and very clean. Very slight buckle due to book being shelved in unheated room. Published by Dutton, 2000. Original price is $16.95.

   Named in honor of Charles Darwin, the father of evolution, the Darwin Awards commemorate those who improve our gene pool by removing themselves from it, showing us just how uncommon common sense can be.

   Meet the absentminded terrorist who opens a mail bomb returned to him for insufficient postage. Marvel at the thief who steals electrical wires without shutting off the current. Learn from the man who peers into a gasoline can using a cigarette lighter. All of these people contend for Darwin Awards when their choices culminate in magnificent misadventures.

   These tales of trial and awe-inspiring error...verified by the author and endorsed by website readers...illustrate the ongoing saga of survival of the fittest in all its selective glory.

   Media s&h is $4.00 to anywhere in the U.S., payable by PayPal. I ship only to the U.S.   I ship the day after I receive payment. Your book will be shipped in a box. I wrap the book in plastic or bubble wrap to prevent water damage and pack with newspaper to eliminate any shifting in the box (Plastic protects book from newsprint).

   I ship promptly but please allow extra time for media delivery.
