Description
An essential guide to modern manners, this enlightening and useful book strikes a balance between the stuffy, rigid rules of the 1950s and today's anything-goes school of thought. It is packed with good-humoured advice for the way we live today, but also discusses which formal points of etiquette are still relevant in the 21st century.

- What to Wear: avoiding the pitfalls of modern dress codes
- Rites of Passage: christenings, weddings and funerals
- Eating Out: from saying grace to understanding cutlery

- Getting Around: the rules of public transport and how to avoid road rage
- Communications: how to make a phonecall and write an email
