Alex Smyth, one of my favorite former students and course assistants at Stanford, sent me this picture of The No Asshole Rule from a Beijing Bookstore. He took the picture in May when he was visiting.
It appears that a lot of people were getting their hands on it. Alex writes,
"Thought I'd share
with you this picture of a very well-thumbed paperback copy of the No Asshole
Rule I found in the main English-language bookstore in Beijing. Note the
sheer amount of dirt and grime…- There were a few other much-cleaner copies,
but everyone seemed to be using this one to browse through…"
P.S. The paperback version isn't out yet in the U.S. and won't be out for sometime. In China, they are selling the trade paperback version that is published in the United Kingdom. Note the spelling of "civilised."
