By following the White Man Commandments―namely, that winning justifies anything and everything―you too can achieve success beyond your capabilities. With lessons on the value of shock and awe, putting compassion on the back-burner and pretending racism doesn’t exist, distinguished Professor of Modern White People Studies, Boulé Whytelaw, teaches you how to understand, overcome and overthrow the White Man in the whiter-shade-of-pale world of work.
