I See Rude People: One Woman's Outrageous Battle to Beat Some Manners into Impolite Society

Rude people beware! The Advice Goddess is taking "manners" into her own handsHate those intrusive telemarketers? Had it with inconsiderate mobile phone users on the train? In I See Rude People, popular blogger Amy Alkon goes to extreme lengths to force ill-behaved people to improve their manners, and inspires you to do the same. Instead of stewing in anger, Amy illustrates how to confront rude people head-on by calling them out on their impolite ways. With play-by-play accounts of her inspiring and humorous confrontations, Amy outlines the reasons for this misbehaviour, provides solid arguments for convincing abusers to change their ways, and exhorts all of us to become better members of society.

Amy Alkon writes the award-winning nationally syndicated advice column, The Advice Goddess, which appears in about 100 papers across the U.S. and Canada. She has been featured in The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal, Glamour and Psychology Today, and has appeared on Good Morning America, The Today Show, NPR, CNN, MTV, Politically Incorrect and Nightline.
