Complaint Résumé

Complaint: From Minor Moans to Principled Protests Julian Baggini

Complaint can be a powerful political tool. Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King both used it to drive social change. So why do we moan about increasingly trivial things - like the weather or public transport? Do Brits complain less than Americans? Do men and women complain about different things? What is the best way to complain? From Adam and Eve to the Iraq War, Baggini analyzes precisely what we complain about, how and why. You can't complain about that!

Complaint Avis

...relaxed, affable yet startlingly lucid analysis of humanity's tendency to complain...Baggini's analysis of the categories of complaint is, like the book, both rigorous and entertaining ...Complaint should be compulsory reading. Politicians should be tested on it before being allowed to stand for office. -- Michael Bywater * The Independent *
...[a] sweetly reasoned complaint. * Independent on Sunday *
Baggini does a wonderful job of showing the complexity of a topic that on the surface seems very simple. His clear writing style and presentation makes this a very engaging book that will appeal to a wide range of readers. * Library Journal USA *
...short and lucid book devoted to an important but neglected subject...[a] stimulating book. * Observer *
fascinating. * Financial Times *
Complaint is an enjoyably astringent and wry read. * Guardian *
