If you have ever read a government press release or report, management consultant’s report or a recruitment advertisement and been perplexed by bamboozling language, wondering what they are really saying, your are not alone! The first part of this book is a dictionary of over 700 fashionable words, terms and phrases that now have new, often coded, meanings (plus some that are now passé); the second part of the book provides translations of actual documents, notices and proclamations! Simultaneously entertaining and scary, this book is a must-read for all New Zealanders who want to understand the language of government and those who cater to it. This 2004 Transpress Paperback is in good condition. Ex company library. ISBN: 9780908876150 SKU: 1574495 Note: Any image shown is from a stock photo and is not the actual book.
