About the book, which is a science-based, funny, manners advice book: 

250 Words called it one of 11 smart books to read for summer: 



And Wharton School's Adam Grant, whom I really respect, called the book "outstanding work" and wrote this:

“This book is a gem, hysterically funny and grounded in science. Amy Alkon explains why so many people are rude and how it’s possible to be courteous, even if you’re foul-mouthed and clueless about etiquette. If anything will convince my wife that my manners are better than she thought, this is it.”

~Adam Grant, Wharton professor and bestselling author of Give and Take
