Judith Martin 
Minding Miss Manners [EPUB ebook] 
In an Era of Fake Etiquette

Stöd

The etiquette expert and “authentic comic genius” guides us through the Age of Incivility (Chris Buckley, New York Times-bestselling author of Has Anyone Seen My Toes?).   We seem to be entering a new era, liberated from oppressive, old-fashioned rules of etiquette. We’re finally free! Free to shout insults at strangers on the street! Free to pressure people to give us money! Free to use all sorts of offensive language!   In this book, New York Times-bestselling author Judith Martin, aka Miss Manners, reminds us that living in an etiquette-free paradise is not all it’s cracked up to be. In wise, witty commentary and responses to letters, she addresses vexing problems in the workplace, at the wedding, on the web, and beyond, in hopes of saving civilization.   But fear not, Gentle Reader—she also allows us some important exceptions. For example, despite the rampant oversharing that social media has encouraged, you can politely refuse to answer nosy questions.  And you are decidedly not obliged to respond to every inane post; stay on the phone with a telemarketer; or hug your colleagues.   “An extremely useful philosopher . . . I consult her frequently, in order to behave better.” —Daniel Handler in The New York Times
