5.0 out of 5 stars A Full Course in Lifemastery
If you have already mastered the ploys and gambits of gamesmanship, then this is the book you need to take your play to the next level. Serious manuevers for negotiating conversations with ease while making the other party feel uncomfotable. A trove of practical advice for all social occasions, really.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as witty or comical as you think
Yes, you will be confused, unless of course you are older and British. Many of the activities and daily objects described in this book are from a bygone era or foreign (unless you are British!), making the humor in the book difficult to understand unless you are a historian. The language is not smooth, either, rather it is choppy and the content is jumbled.

5.0 out of 5 stars My handbook, September 13, 2004
This review is from: Lifemanship:Some Notes on Lifemanship with a Summary of Recent Research in Gamesmanship (Paperback)
One of four Potter masterpieces. This dastardly-clever book is my secret weapon in dealing with life and people on a daily basis. Forget "How To Win Friends and Influence People" - this is the real stuff! Hilarious.

Anyone who doesn't laugh, chortle, snort and generally enjoy this slim tome is someone who is far too dour to participate fully in a gratifying life of putdowns and being put down. Get it, read it, master it == live it.
