Jonathan Miller changed my life so often and made it so much better that were he to become a religion I should immediately renounce apostasy and join.

<i>One Thing and Another</i> is indeed a further fascinating ramble round subjects that intrigue Dr Miller. They range from getting stuck in rehearsal to Erving Goffman’s revelations as non-verbal communication. Compelling stuff.
Max Stafford-Clark
Anything written or spoken by Jonathan Miller is to be treasured. This stunning collection is a must. The famous keen intelligence, the scholarship, the laugh out-loud wit and humor, all in Miller’s incomparable prose make this work a necessary addition to your library. In fact, considering its range, this book could just about be your library. Make a friend’s year. Pick up two copies.
