Book excerpt: Tricky People profiles the whole scary range of ‘difficult’ types: back-stabbers, white-anters, blamers, whingers, bullies, tyrants, controllers, charmers, know-it-alls, perfectionists, competitors and the seriously self-obsessed. It offers imaginative yet practical ways to deal with these dangerous and frustrating creatures and identify the slippery techniques they employ to get their way. Adopting Jean-Paul Sartre’s dictum, ‘Hell is other people’, Andrew Fuller, author of the highly successful Tricky Kids, takes us on a voyage through a rogues’ gallery of weird, nasty and not-so-loveable types. These are people whom we may have the misfortune to meet at breakfast, at work, at a family reunion, or even (horrors!) in bed at night. Buried cleverly within all the humour is an in-depth look at how difficult people manage us for their own ends – and how to overturn that. It helps us understand relationship patterns, office politics, our own shortcomings in our dealings with others, and what a difficult person might be able to teach us. ‘With the knowledge in this book I would have gone much, much further – east.’ Asian travel consultant Genghis Khan ‘I can see no resemblance to myself in any of the characters depicted in this book.’ King Henry VIII of England ‘Henry is featured throughout this book.’ Anne Boleyn
