English
A tongue-in-cheek guide to words that a smart, well-educated, pretentious person should be able to drop into cocktail conversation. It helps the reader to toss off words such as `Disestablishmentarianism`, `descant`, and `autodidactic`, proving, if not the value of a good education, at least the appearance of a good education.
