Présentation de l'éditeur
For fans of Dave Barry and Gary Larson, 900-plus definitions for the outraged idealist in all of us.
The Cynics Dictionary fills the need we all have to reassure ourselves that we're right--things are a mess. The world is falling apart. And if we can't always fix it, at least we can still poke fun at it. Brash, bold, and brilliant, irascible and irreverent.
Biographie de l'auteur
Rick Bayan has been an editor of "Rubber Age" and "Container News." He has also written with cynical gusto about plumbing fixtures for Time-Life Books. In the process, he has won five advertising awards. He lives in Pennsylvania.
