50 People Who Messed up the World

Praise for the authors’ previous book, 50 People Who Stuffed Up South Africa:

A well-researched, considered look at those who have had an influence on South Africa’s progress; or rather, have hindered it. - City Press

Entertaining … enlightening … comes highly recommended. - Business Day

A thoroughly enjoyable read … very funny.

They’re all here, neatly skewered and steeped in scorn. Brilliant.

The writing is sharp and the scope impressive … provides some great moral sword fights and it’s worth reading for the cartoons alone. - Rapport

Alex Parker is an equal-opportunity offender. From Jan van Riebeeck to Julius Malema … [you’ll] find little argument here with his pick of those we love to hate. - The Times

Parker manages to balance cynicism and optimism, and his blend of sardonic humour and scathing social commentary make for a surprisingly relaxed read. - The Big Issue

Witty and well-written - Independent Newspapers
