Description

What is the etiquette of greeting an opposite-sex colleague in a social situation? Should you shake hands or air-kiss?
Are you surrounded by people who continually complain about being broke but manage to pop over to Bali for a holiday?
Do you like saying the names of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Aung San Suu Kyi just because they sound good?
Do you secretly envy surgeons because they get to scrub right up to their forearms, or feel uncomfortable unless the television volume is set to an even number?
Have you ever left a social function thinking, 'Am I the only normal person in the world?'
If any of this resonated with you, then Bernard Salt is your fellow traveller. Decent Obsessions is a rollicking - some might say slightly obsessive - journey through the manners, the mores and the minutiae of modern life.

Will definitely use again!

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
