Anti-social book review

Not long ago I indicated my dislike of Francis Gilbert's book Yob Nation (buy it here). Over on Spiked today ('What’s behind the rise of Yob Lit?', 20 July 2006) is a review setting out my objections in a bit more detail. Up the chavs!
-------------------------------------
PS. I was putting the links in this page when I noticed that there's a facility from Amazon which allows couples to add Yob Nation to their wedding lists. I object! Seriously, who - apart from Mrs Gilbert, already married to the author - is going to want this as a gift?
