Ray John Knowles (8 results)

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In an age where it is a legal requirement to scamper around after our family pet and collect its faeces in a plastic bag, today's man must accept that he lives in a flawed world. One in which he is no longer master of his own household and where, at the whim of jealous colleagues, ex-wives and ungrateful children, he is the brunt of ridicule and abuse.In this ground breaking work, Ray Knowles offers reassurance. He argues that despite the balance of public opinion and in some cases the weight of criminal evidence, men are undeserving of the criticisms levelled at them and almost certainly never to blame for the pain and suffering they have caused"Bad advice for bad men" is a rally against today's misguided zeitgeist. As well as providing moral reassurance it offers advice on what to do in a variety of everyday situations such as accidentally defecating in a crowded swimming pool or finding that you have been appointed the Lord's saviour on earth.
