This book explores the history and evolution of politeness and rudeness through centuries of human societies and interactions. The author examines how politeness can both protect and even harm, how it can be used as a weapon or a tool of self-defense, as an expression of power or a way to limit it. This book will appeal to any reader interested in the history of etiquette and morality, the reader who enjoys social psychology and cultural history, or the casual reader with a curiosity about how we came to be the people we are today.
