Inappropriate people and smart ways to coexist with them

From Dostoevsky and his masterful "Idiot" to John Hoover and this self-help guide for our happy coexistence with the most unlikely companions of modern daily life, a lot of ink has been spilled on fools. So much so, that it makes us wonder how many fools are really among us and, after all, how a fool is defined and who has the right to treat their neighbor as a fool. Or themselves.

Anyway, as things generally stand, the author emphasizes that it is not at all unlikely that one fine morning you may find yourself living next to a fool – whether that person is your partner, roommate, or neighbor. Do not panic: harmonious coexistence with them largely depends on your willingness to seek out and find the fool that you also have hidden within you.

Yes, we all have a fool inside us; it’s just that some fools stand out more and are more easily distinguished. In the book you are holding, you will find useful and practical advice on how to learn to have more realistic expectations of others, thereby reducing your discontent and rebuilding your relationship with your fool, placing less emphasis on both their and your own faults.

Don’t be discouraged at all and take matters into your own hands!
