Have you heard of the country whose schools have banned the use of egg boxes and loo rolls in craft lessons as they pose a health risk? No? It's Britain! This is a laugh-out-loud collection of ludicrous laws, money-wasting council schemes and ridiculous red tape.

Based on over 250 psychiatric case files, this book traces the lives of Kenya's 'white insane' to focus not on the 'great white hunters' and heroic pioneer farmers but on those Europeans who did not manage to emulate the colonial ideal. In doing so, the book raises important new questions around deviance, transgression and social control. -- .
