Publisher Description
Random House presents the audiobook edition of F*** You Very Much, written and read by Danny Wallace.
You're not imagining it. People are getting ruder. And this is a serious problem.
The book that inspired the iTunes Top Ten podcast
Did you know that even one rude comment in a life and death situation can decrease a surgeon’s performance by as much as 50%? That we say we don’t want rude politicians, but we vote for them anyway? Or that rude language can sway a jury in a criminal case?
Bestselling writer and broadcaster Danny Wallace (Yes Man, Awkward Situations For Men), is on a mission to understand where we have gone wrong. He travels the world interviewing neuroscientists, psychologists, NASA scientists, barristers, bin men, and bellboys. He joins a Radical Honesty group in Germany, talks to drivers about road rage in LA, and confronts his own online troll in a pub.
And in doing so, he uncovers the latest thinking about how we behave, how rudeness, once unleashed, can spread like a virus – and how even one flippant remark can snowball into disaster.
As insightful and enthralling as it is highly entertaining, F*** You Very Much* is an eye-opening exploration into the worst side of human behaviour.
*This book was originally published under the title, I Can’t Believe You Just Said That. But we decided it just wasn’t rude enough...
"A cry for human decency… deliciously hilarious. I politely encourage you to read this book. Immediately." Adam Grant author of Originals, Give and Take, Option B
Customer Reviews
A great read, a better listen
After reading ‘I can’t believe you just said that’/ ‘F*ck you very much’ I took a moment to really think about my life, how I am to others and how others are to me. This book puts things in perspective in a very clear and CLEVER way. I actually feel I’m a better driver thanks to this book, it’s bizarre.
I’m a fan of Danny’s and I thought this book was a step into the unknown when buying it. I was correct to think it was different to Danny’s classics, but still just as engaging, interesting and informative.
Get it....please!!!
