Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

THE WORLD HAS RULES. MOST OF THEM AREN'T WRITTEN DOWN.- Thou Shalt Not Stand in the Doorway.- Thou Shalt Let People Be Excited About Their Good News.- Thou Shalt Text Back. Eventually.- Thou Shalt Not Take All the Free Samples.- Thou Shalt Accept the Middle Seat With Dignity.These are the lesser laws that govern civilized life-the tiny acts of courtesy, common sense, and human decency that somehow escaped the Ten Commandments.The Book of Thou Shalt is a playful, irreverent guide to navigating the modern world without becoming the person everyone quietly hopes will leave the room. With the solemnity of ancient scripture and the petty specificity of everyday life, it delivers commandments for everything from elevators and customer service to dinner parties, office etiquette, public transportation, and the mysterious social crime of replying "You too" when the waiter says, "Enjoy your meal."Part wisdom, part satire, and part desperately needed instruction manual, this is a book for anyone who has ever thought: "Surely there is a rule against this."There is now.
