It proposes forty-three principles for ruining any undertaking, with philosophical theory, mathematics, and practical exercises: being unhappy in love, starting psychoanalysis, becoming a smoker, or ruining a mayonnaise. «Ratology» is applied to various professions.

For readers seeking a humorous and ironic essay, with a provocative air and self-critical vocation, about failure and everyday life.
