"Completely revised and updated" -- Spine

For the past one hundred years, Emily Post has been America's definitive source for how to navigate-- and enhance-- every social interaction. This centennial edition has been updated for our increasingly diverse and intersectional world. Post and Senning-- great-great grandchildren of Emily Post-- continue the Post family legacy of upholding traditions while moving forward with the times. From table manners and gift-giving to video meetings, AI and home security, and tipping practices in the age of rideshares and payment screens, you'll move through your world with confidence and ease. -- adapted from back cover
