Description
Bluffocracy: How Britain's Establishment Became Hooked on Pretending to Know It All
The UK establishment has long prized 'transferable skills' over specific expertise, rewarding those who can talk the talk as much as those who can walk the walk. This approach has led to a culture where politicians and civil servants are often more skilled at spinning than substance.
Written by two self-confessed bluffers, this book chronicles how Britain became hooked on bluffing - and why it's time to stop it.
