English is the most creative, changeable and imaginative of languages. This book celebrates its many facets, including slang and jargon, swearing, speaking the unspeakable, or concealing unpleasant or inconvenient facts. It is a book for browsing: readable and entertaining, and full of intriguing snippets about language, history and social customs.
