'This book rewarded me with dark, dry chuckles on every page' - Reni Eddo-Lodge

'Hilarious . . . This original approach to discussing race is funny, intellectual and timely' - Independent

'The work of a true mastermind' - Benjamin Zephaniah

I learned early on that, for me as a black professional, to rise through the ranks and really attain power, I needed to adopt the most ruthless of mindsets possible: the mindset of the White Man who would tear your cheek from your face before he even considered turning his one first.

Reviews for Think Like a White Man: A Satirical Guide to Conquering the World . . . While Black

Hilariously captures the realities of working in corporate spaces . . . although lighthearted in tone, he approaches the topic with a level of care and understanding that allows readers to engage beyond the satire and confront the ways in which they navigate the workspace * * Trench * * I have no doubt this is the book to shake up 2019 the same way Reni Eddo-Lodge's Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People about Race did 2017 -- Derek Owusu * * Big Issue * * Hilarious . . . This original approach to discussing race is funny, intellectual and timely * * Independent * * Hugely entertaining and entirely unapologetic . . . as comical as it is bleak * * Cosmopolitan * * I can't recommend this book enough . . . Hilarious work from Nels Abbey -- DANE BAPTISTE I really can't think of any comedian, satirist or journalist (with a sense of humour) that has made me laugh out so loud and be so stimulated intellectually at the same time. No messing people, Nels Abbey has written the most original book ever . . . It takes hold of your cerebral cortex then grabs your funny bone, and it doesn't let go until the very end. Honestly. Even the appendices shine with brilliance. What kind of book is this? I don't know. Just read it and see how difficult it is to put the label on the work of a true mastermind -- BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH Cutting!! This book rewarded me with dark, dry chuckles on every page. I had to laugh, because if I didn't, I would cry -- RENI EDDO-LODGE
