The F-Word Hardcover - 2009 - 3rd Edition
by Jesse Sheidlower (Editor); Foreword by Lewis Black
The most controversial word in the English language--the word that still can't be used on network TV or in major newspapers--is displayed here in its endless varieties, supported by colorful citations dating back to the word's earliest appearance in the 15th century.
From the jacket flap
This is the book everyone had waited for. Here, in one convenient, comprehensive volume, is the complete story of the word still considered the most vulgar utterance in the English language. Rather than tired cliches or graceless jokes, The F-Word contains page after page of actual, uncensored examples of the word in all its varied and robust use, from its first appearance in English in the fifteenth century.
