An amusing, informative, controversial and utterly irreverent history of the world's favourite word. In this fascinating and frequently funny book, Rufus Lodge traces the origins of the F-word and explores its role in our language across the ages. He looks at the use of the word in literature, film, television, popular music and in the home. He explores the offence it has caused and the people who became famous for using it. The ideal gift for the foul-mouthed member of the family.
