‘The Monday Morning Feeling: A Book Of Comfort For Sufferers’ by Joep P.M. Schrijvers (retail price £8.99, discounted to £4.99)
Most of us suffer from the Monday morning feeling. Joep Schrijvers, the author of the international bestseller ‘The Way Of The Rat’ (150,000 copies sold worldwide), examines with his usual wit and brutality, the four emotions that are at the heart of the Monday morning feeling – sorrow, fear, disgust and anger. The Monday morning feeling is the inevitable companion of anyone who works in today’s cut-throat corporate environment.

“Few management books genuinely shock… ‘The Monday Morning Feeling’ is a gloomily entertaining disquisition on why so many people are so unenthusiastic about their work… In the end, however, an injection of the relentlessly downbeat ends up being energizing. By clearing out some obvious (and not so obvious) idiocies, Schrijvers obliges you to think about more promising avenues. If The ‘Monday Morning Feeling’ shocks, the effect comes from the bleakness it dissects in the assumptions that underpin so much of corporate life.”
