A Load of Old Balls by Joao Brand

Jo Brand is one of the wittiest and sharpest comics in Britain today. Now she has penned a satirical look at the contribution the male species has made to the civilized world. Selecting her top 50 men in history, she has provided brief, witty, sometimes affectionate, more often savage portraits - from Buddha to Elvis Presley, from Albert Einstein to Sid Vicious, from William the Conqueror to Mr Costakis, her local kebab shop owner - which strip away their ludicrous pretensions and expose their dubious iconography.
