Publisher's Synopsis
In Spoilt Rotten well-known social commentator Theodore Dalrymple grinds his axe at our child-centric culture where children have become the yardstick of everything we do, safe driving, education, taking of responsibility (none), sentimentality (everywhere). In this forensic polemic of maudlin popular culture from X-factor to Super Nannies, Dalrymple wields his scalpel at all the modern sacred cows. Children will be speechless, for once, parents will hang their heads in shame!
