Publisher's Summary:
Warning: This book makes jokes about the Third Reich, the Reign of Terror, World War I, cancer, Millard Fillmore, and Chernobyl.
Advertising legend Jim Riswold is a big f---ing deal. Ask him, he'll tell you. But when Riswold is stricken with leukemia and prostate cancer (a two-fer!), the freewheeling adman quits making commercials and starts making art.
But not just any art - Hitler art. Mussolini art. Stalin-in-a-bathtub art.
This is not a sad cancer story. This is a molotov cocktail of raunch and heart and 18-gauge biopsy guns. This is a taboo-busting laugh riot, a raspberry blown straight at dying-guy preciousness and monsters of all kinds - cancer and world-historical bad guys included.
Be warned - contents of this book include:
Relentlessly funny and scorchingly subversive, this is a bruised and bruising memoir - it is also tubed, scarred, stapled, and irradiated.
But here's the secret: Jim Riswold, enfant terrible, the man Charles Barkley once called "a role model for morons", is kind of a sweetheart. The wise-guy posturing is just a cover for his pulpy heart.
Another secret: This book isn't about Hitler. It's about the beautiful, stupid, gross, foolish, and fantastic things we're willing to do for love and family and not-dying. It's about a guy who, with due respect to Lou Gehrig, considers himself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.
Really, Jim Riswold owes cancer a thank you. Thanks to cancer, his tombstone will no longer read: Here Lies That Guy Who Did That "Bo Knows" Commercial.
Now, it will say Here Lies the Guy Who Put Cancer in Its Place - and Mussolini on a Tricycle.

Members Reviews:
The title is misleading!
It's not just another book about cancer treatments. It's a most clever way to explain the subject, and you'll laugh. PS - You'll also learn about history, especially when you read the footnotes.

Amazing book.
Like Riswold's classic advertising, this book is full of heart. It's funny, it's smart, it's poignant. And it's funny. I said that twice because it really is. Enjoy the ride with Jim as he laughs at despots and cancer with equal authority. You laugh, you'll cryâyou'll see Jesus in an Easter basket.

A fresh perspective on a killer
I experienced a new emotion. I think it was 'craughing'; whereas my laughing mind battled my sad crying mind until they absorbed one another and created this new state. Definitely Jim Riswold writes from a truthful place without regard for your comfort zone. And that's how amazing things are developed. This book is a very quick read a byproduct of the flowing conditions. Do read the captions and footnotes. They add to the depth of the concept.

A naked (literally) take on the battle with cancer.
Loved it. Riswold's unique perspective on the world comes to life in this naked (literally) take on his battles with cancer. One of advertising's most decorated and demented minds plays it straight, for him. Thought provoking, annoying, irreverent and compassionate.

LMFAO
Weather its coworkers trying to take credit for your work, a family member that knows no personal bounds, or a loud cell phone talker, HITLER SAVED MY LIFE, gives you the tools for bringing out the best in people at there worst.
