: En "Watching The English", la antrop�loga Kate Fox ofrece una mirada reveladora a las peculiaridades, h�bitos y rarezas del pueblo ingl�s. Pone el car�cter nacional ingl�s bajo su microscopio antropol�gico y encuentra una cultura extra�a y fascinante, gobernada por conjuntos complejos de reglas t�citas y c�digos de comportamiento bizantinos. Las reglas del clima-habla, la regla del gnomo ir�nico, la regla de la disculpa refleja, la regla de la pantomima paranoica, los indicadores de clase y las pruebas de ansiedad de clase, el tab� del dinero y muchos m�s. A trav�s de una mezcla de an�lisis antropol�gico y sus propios experimentos poco ortodoxos (incluso utiliz�ndose a s� misma como conejillo de indias reacio), Kate Fox descubre lo que estos c�digos de conducta no escritos nos dicen sobre la "inglesidad".
