Mixed feelings about this book, because some chapters are humours and amusing, while others are dry and boring. The book provides insights into the "strange" behavior of English people and explains behavioral rules and codes for every occasion- work, play, pub, home, sex, food, clothers, hobbies, etc. The key takeaway from the book-English are a bit inhibited, but alcohol and self-deprecating humour are the best social lubricants. Overall, it's an interesting book for any anglophile, but be wary of some repetitiousness.
