Perhaps the greatest political cartoonist in the world, Steve Bell's unforgettable pictures for the "Guardian" newspaper offer an enduring commentary on the world we live in, and the idiots who try to run or ruin it for us. Awesomely savage and utterly original, Steve finds the defining image for every occasion from the absurd posturing of politicians to the dreadful consequences of their (and others' actions). Brilliant, hilarious and - when necessary - quite heart-wrenchingly sombre, this latest "If..." book covers the triumphs and the tragedies of our time from 2003 to the present, at home and abroad, with all the venom and insight of a truly great satirist.

Steve Bell has won more Cartoonist of the Year awards than he cares to count. He lives in Brighton with his wife.
