| Annotation | The old concern not to give offence has been replaced by a desire to shock, to dare, and to be noticed. This book's authors are twelve academics in disciplines from medicine to sociology. The theme of manners is dealt with from perspectives of behaviour of the sexes towards one another, the spoken word, intergenerational deference, the way we dress, sport, truth, professional behaviour, home life, and the community. |
