Sobre IBD

That Does It is an enfilade of critical attacks on the absurdities, stupidities, and crimes of present-day American life. The book provides a handy checklist of ills, from the life threatening to the merely obnoxious, afflicting the American psyche and body politic, which it then proceeds to submerge in satirical acid.
