With humor, compassion, and gusto, Miss Conduct's Mind over Manners delivers thoughtful and thought-provoking advice for everyone navigating the complex world of modern human interaction., Paperback, Ausgabe: Original, Label: Times Books, Times Books, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 2009-05-26, Freigegeben: 2009-05-26, Studio: Times Books, Verkaufsrang: 2365961.
