   Ok, so I got 'Intellectual Impostures', and as carefully thinking about   
   the original title of 'Fashionable Nonsense' would have suggested, it is   
   in fact the same book.  The US title is 'Fashionable Nonsense', the   
   French is 'Impostures Intellectuelles' and the UK one is 'Intellectual   
   Impostures'. Quite disappointing really; I though for a moment that I   
   was getting something new!
