'A classic' - Simon Kuper, Financial Times

'Brilliant' - James O'Brien, author of How to be Right

The five laws that confirm our worst fears- stupid people can and do rule the world.

Since time immemorial, a powerful dark force has hindered the growth of human welfare and happiness. It is more powerful than the Mafia or the military. It has global catastrophic effects and can be found anywhere from the world's most powerful boardrooms to your local pub. This is the immensely powerful force of human stupidity.

Seeing the shambolic state of human affairs, and sensing the dark force at work behind it, Carlo M. Cipolla, the late, noted professor of economic history at the University of California, Berkeley, created a vitally important economic model that would allow us to detect, know and neutralise this threat- The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity.

If you've ever found yourself despairing at the ubiquity of stupidity among even the most 'intellectual' of people, then this hilarious, timely and slightly alarming little book is for you. Arm yourself in the face of baffling political realities, unreasonable colleagues or the unbridled misery of dinner with the in-laws with the first and only economic model for stupidity.

A Standout
This toner is a standout as it is infused with Centella Asiatica extract, which soothes irritation while gently exfoliating without causing dryness or redness. The watery texture absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling refreshed and balanced. This toner helps improve skin texture and clarity.

100% Worth a Try!
Listen to me carefully: I haven’t been this excited about a skincare product in a LONG time, and I try a lot of new products every year. I had just tried a new “viral” makeup primer that sucked every ounce of moisture out of my already dry skin in one day, ruining my skin barrier and making anything but water sting on my face, so I decided to give this a try. The consistency is light when applying, and not heavy- but you can feel that you have a protective moisturizing layer over the skin. The biggest thing? NO STINGING even on red, dry, irritated skin! Centella really is the best soothing ingredient I’ve tried. It gives a soft glow without looking oily. I haven’t had a “holy grail” product in years, until now!
