A nice follow-up to "America the Book". The audiobook for America the Book was a much more complete text, using many more actors (familiar voices from The Daily Show) than did Earth (The Book): A Visitor's Guide to the Human Race.
The ability to use aliens to provide an opportunity to refer to the history of the earth from a 3rd party perspective using a pseudo-anthropological perspective provided a good opportunity to point out obvious inconsistencies and fallacies using typical Daily Show humour and cynicism.
If I had to pick, I liked the America audiobook more than Earth, but both are worth the time to listen.
