New World Order (Hardback)

Every Country on Earth. Sorted.

Dixe Wills

Offbeat travel writer Dixe Wills nails down the essence of every single country on the planet. Say goodbye to sleepless nights fretting over the average number of puls to the Afghani, or wondering what's in Bhutan today and whether it will still be fresh by the time you get it home. With a handy grading system to reveal who are the globe's real top nations and which ones are letting the side down on a monumental scale, it's no wonder that experts are declaring "New World Order" the most important book to be written in the last 500 years. Without it, all is chaos and anarchy. And that's a bad thing, apparently.

Dixe Wills is the author of Places to Hide and The Z to Z of Great Britain, both of which remain the benchmarks of their respective genres. He writes a monthly column for culture magazine Third Way, and bangs out the occasional Strindberg adaptation for the stage in a largely doomed attempt to appear deep and mysterious.
