Tricky People: How to deal with horrible types before they ruin your life

Fullers, Andrew

Finch Publishing

PB

9781921462023

$24.95

Adopting Jean-Paul Sartre’s dictum, ‘Hell is other people’, Andrew Fuller takes us on a voyage through a rogues’ gallery of weird, nasty and not-so-loveable types. These are people whom we may have the misfortune to meet at breakfast, at work, at a family reunion, or even (horrors!) in bed at night. Tricky People profiles the whole scary range of ‘difficult’ types: back-stabbers, white-anters, blamers, whingers, bullies, tyrants, controllers, charmers, know-it-alls, perfectionists, competitors and the seriously self-obsessed. It offers imaginative yet practical ways to deal with these dangerous and frustrating creatures, and identifies the slippery techniques they employ to get their way.
