Losers and Idiots: A Tribute to Failure

"People and stupidity: it is a match well made. Even the earliest myths of humanity record our ability to make mistakes: just look at Adam and Pandora. For every good decision made by men and women, twenty bad ones have been made: some out of plain stupidity, others with the best possible intentions. Some of these mistakes only harmed the decision-maker; others damaged the reputations and fortunes of many. An illustrated celebration of human stupidity and poor decision-making, with examples from history, sport, politics, celebrity and corporate life. Each example is a tribute to failure and human failings, with hilarious results. Features Tom Cruise, Tiger Woods, Prince Harry, Richard Nixon, Zinidine Zidane, Tonya Harding.
