Samenvatting:

Gobshites have risen to power across the world. Whether they're mangling facts on Facebook, giving unsolicited 'expert' advice at family dinners, or somehow in charge of approving your mortgage, gobshites are everywhere. Understanding them is nearly impossible. Learning to cope with them is essential.

INSIDE YOU'LL FIND:

• A FULL TAXONOMY OF GOBSHITES, from the garden-variety to the full-blown menace.
• A BRIEF HISTORY OF GOBSHITERY through the ages. How gobshites learned to thrive through ancient civilization to modern society in spite of themselves.
• PRACTICAL STRATEGIES for navigating gobshite-infested spaces – offices, family events, public transport and beyond.

With the inimitable comedian Jarlath Regan as your guide, you'll learn to spot the gobshite in the room, survive their nonsense, and sidestep them forever.
