HIGHLIGHT 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. |
