Customer Reviews

Delightful and perceptive
If you find human interaction increasingly irritating, it may be because your internal b.s. detector is working overtime. Nick Webb's little book will enlighten you and give you much-needed consolation and amusement.

Must read...
Must have companion when writing email explaining "strategy", "vision" and what not.

Without book: "Does not comply with long term vision"
With book : "We are not doing this now or anytime soon"

Very good little book
I gave this book to a word-loving, bs-hating editor friend of mine, and she loves it. It became quite the hit around our office. Very witty, very sarcastic, very cool!
