I see via Crooked Timber that Harry Frankfurt's marvellous article On Bullshit is now available as a book. It's a great read: basically Frankfurt defines bullshit as speaking without having any regard or concern for whether what you say is true or not. An important philosophical work for our times, methinks!
Update: More on Frankfurt, who apparently is appearing on The Daily Show, from Crooked Timber
