'The work of a true mastermind' Benjamin Zephaniah

By following the White Man Commandments—namely, that winning justifies anything and everything—you too can achieve success beyond your capabilities.

With lessons on the value of shock and awe, putting compassion on the back-burner, and pretending racism doesn’t exist, Think Like a White Man teaches you how to understand, overcome, and overthrow the White Man in the whiter-shade-of-pale world of work.

Reviews

“Cutting!! This book rewarded me with dark, dry chuckles on every page. I had to laugh, because if I didn't, I would cry” RENI EDDO-LODGE



“I really can’t think of any comedian, satirist, or journalist (with a sense of humor) that has made me laugh out so loud and be so stimulated intellectually at the same time. No messing, people, Nels Abbey has written the most original book ever . . . It takes hold of your cerebral cortex, then grabs your funny bone, and it doesn’t let go until the very end. Honestly. Even the appendices shine with brilliance. What kind of book is this? I don’t know. Just read it and see how difficult it is to put the label on the work of a true mastermind” BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH



“Hugely entertaining and entirely unapologetic . . . as comical as it is bleak” Cosmopolitan



“Hilarious . . . This original approach to discussing race is funny, intellectual, and timely” Independent
