SynopsisMiss Manners, a.k.a. Judith Martin, a Washington-based writer whose etiquette advice has long been syndicated in newspapers across the country, updates her 1997 guide with new considerations of office behavior, email, single motherhood, divorce, and--always a fertile ground for truly awful behavior--weddings. Her tart wit and take-no-prisoners attitude are always as properly in place as her white gloves.

Industry Reviews"...I find such passionate certitude not only refreshing--and often hilarious--but also extremely comforting. There should be more areas in life where there is so little room for doubt. Emily Post was a more demure sort....Miss Manners is not interested in nudging people along. She comes right out and says the world would be a better place if everyone started behaving as she does....She is...a strong-minded force of nature in the way that one's interesting and slightly scary grandmothers used to be."New York Times - Julia Reed (06/12/2005)eBay Product ID: EPID44184087
