Review:
This is my kind of book: how to make sense of the modern world. Hats off! -- Chris Stewart Very funny - I hope it does well -- Jane Garvey * Woman's Hour * Wonderful, amazing, funny and warm! -- Tom Hodgkinson I don't really understand what you are doing but I wish you every success -- Vivienne Westwood Praise for Comp: Hilarious, hair-raising narrative - supremely entertaining * Daily Telegraph * Flintoff has the timing of a natural * Sunday Times * Very readable in an Adrian Mole-possessed-by-Satan kind of way. * Spectator * Makes The Lord of the Flies look like a soft-soap cover up * Guardian * Leading journalist John-Paul Flintoff makes a strong case that individuals can have an impact... very funny, but makes a serious point that is extremely relevant to today. -- Daisy Leitch * The Lady *
