Inhaltsangabe

A collection of the contrarian views of Simon Dudley. Why does the Queen think everywhere smells of fresh paint? Why is better a meaningless term without context? How to explain American politics in a single graph, and how the United States won this round of the space race with economics, among much else. Join Simon Dudley as he explores our world from a different perspective. In this series of short stories Dudley tries to untangle the world, and get under the skin of a range of knotty problems. As a companion to "The End of Certainty. How to thrive when playing by the rules is a losing strategy" This book explores more of Dudley's thought provoking contrarian views.
