(insert verb) this book!

The recent New York Times essay, Scan This Book, combined with Morgan Spurlock's recent gig, got me to thinking about how much money the world has been making ever since Abby Hoffman popularized This Book as a concept for a title. The irony of course is that Abby's book is titled Steal This Book and is an anti-capitalist analysis of American consumer society. So what do we do? Make money on his verbage, of course.*

The titles below are generally from Amazon, although I have spared the hyperlinks, since the goal is not to sell them to you. The most interesting part is that every title I found was published after Hoffman's 1971 Steal this Book. That means the market mania on This Book really does seem to come from the early anarchist version. Too bad Hoffman didn't copywright, eh?
