At the start of the handbook, the author introduces the concept of etiquette as a social game governed by rules, suggesting that those who play well will reap rewards in terms of happiness and social acceptance. She encapsulates the essence of modern etiquette with the "Golden Rule": treating others as one wishes to be treated.
