About the book
An irreverent A-Z guide to the tics, twitches and safety-valve nuttiness of modern life. Readers learn about fascinating foibles such as retail therapy, cell yell and cyberchondria in this hilarious guide from a past master of witty compilations. Embellished throughout with elaborations and quotations from the famous, the infamous and the famously insane, cross-referenced with mini-biographies of psychologists, psychoanalysts, stellar looney tunes and instigators of modern psychobabble, this is the reference work for the 21st century.
