HOW NOT TO BE A DICK: AN EVERYDAY ETIQUETTE GUIDE
Book ID/图书代码： 14784514B68714
English Summary/英文概要： On the one hand, nobody wants to be a d*ck. On the other hand, d*cks are everywhere! They cut in line, talk behind our backs, recline into our seats, and even have the power to morph into trolls online. Their powers are impressive, but with a little foresight and thoughtfulness, we can take a stand against di*kishness today. How Not to Be a D*ck is packed with honest and straightforward advice, but it also includes playful illustrations showing two well-meaning (but not always well behaved) young people as they confront moments of potential d*ckishness in their everyday lives. Sometimes they falter, sometimes they triumph, but they always seek to find a better way. And with their help, you can too.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 一方面，谁也不想成为傻瓜，然而事实上，傻瓜们却又无处不在！他们插队，他们在背后嚼人舌根，他们霸占我们的位子，他们甚至还拥有化身为网络上导火索的神奇力量。他们拥有令人叹为观止的力量，但却又不乏一些远见和体贴，因此我们可以反对现下的那些愚蠢行为。《远离愚蠢》中满是各种真诚与直白的建议，当然也会罗列一些玩笑性质的例子，例如会展示日常生活中的两名出于好意的年轻人（可能并不总是行为得体）是如何在某些时刻中犯下了潜在的愚蠢错误。
或许有时他们会踉跄，又或许他们也会成功，但无论如何，他们总是寻找着更好的方法。同样的，在他们的帮助下，我们也能有所成功。（DC）
Awards/获奖情况：千真万确？一部专为青少年量身定制的礼仪书？没错，不用惊讶！看吧，你现在的就正在露出“蠢蠢的表情哦”，对于拥有一屋子方法的多鹤蒂而言，这是一场无止境的灾难和煎熬。这里的氛围简直与“Dick-and-Jane”无异，挑剔的初期读者文风加上剪贴画式的插图，这一切都为面无表情的男孩和女孩增色不少。通过这些曾经风靡一时的人物角色，多鹤蒂总是能重燃这些21世纪的活力人群，并使他们变得极其有趣。（你上一次因为一本非小说类的书籍作品开怀大笑又是什么时候？）古怪滑稽的幽默是一方面，但多鹤蒂是否向我们传递了更实质性的信息？令人大为震惊的是，她确确实实地为青少年读者们提供了有关于在前方等待着他们的成人世界的种种建议，直言不讳，充满深意。以下列举了一些例子：在谈话的过程中，永远不要盯着女性的胸部看，避免一些消极且具有侵略性的便条，如果你在服务行业工作，试着表现出“没什么特别事件发生”的样子，千万不要一味的降低你的飞机座椅等等。此外，作者甚至还向我们扔下了数颗超级智慧弹；有关于信仰，她是如是写道的：相信一个想法和理念，就好比与人陷入爱河--即便我们无法为之做出合理解释，一切却也看上去真实与合理异常。此外，书中还会对室友、办公室聚餐、酒精等诸多内容进行额外强调，因此，本书显然是中学和大学的下学年必读精彩书目。总而言之，我们总是需要有人不时地提醒，在洗澡的过程中随意嘘嘘其实是不对的。---《书单》，星级评论
Really? An etiquette book for teens? Yes, really, you butt-faced jerk! See, that right there is "dickish behavior," a timeless plague for which Doherty has a cabinet full of cures. The atmosphere is pure Dick-and-Jane: fussy early-reader prose married to bland clip-art-style illustrations starring a deadpan boy and girl. Through these oldfangled characters, Doherty fires absurd twenty-first century zingers that happen to be really, really, really funny. (When was the last time you LOL’d at a nonfiction book?) Droll humor is one thing, but does Doherty deliver substance? Shockingly, she does, offering teens blunt, no-nonsense advice on the adult world that awaits them. Examples: dont stare at a female’s boobs during conversation, avoid passive-aggressive Post-its, try to smell like "nothing in particular" if you work in the service industry, don’t recline your airplane chair all the way, and on and on. She even drops some mega-wisdom bombs; regarding faith, she writes, "Believing in an idea is kind of like falling in love with a person--it just seems right, even if we can’t explain it. Given the emphasis on roommates, office parties, and alcohol, this is clearly the gift book for next year’s high-school and college grads. After all, we all need the occasional reminder that peeing in the shower is wrong. --"Booklist", Starred Review
