An amusing look at the superstitions, quirks and habits of the rich and famous - and how they led to success

Lost in Translation features hundreds of genuine, utterly ridiculous examples of the misadventures in English discovered all over the world by the author and his team of researchers. From hotel signs to advertisements, this book demonstrates how widely the English language has travelled, even if it has got a bit scrambled en route.

Offering coverage ranging from food to travel, via gardening and fashion, this title provides you with the information you need to know about who we are, where we're going, and why - on statistical grounds - we should consider living in Southend-on-Sea.
