  Rather than being the customary style dictionary of saints , this little book lists the patron saints by profession, by diseases and ailments they cure, and by the various crisis of daily life. In the world of work there is a patron saint for everyone from advertising executives, taxi drivers and teachers to astronauts and arms dealers. There is an abundance of saints that protect blood donors, eczema sufferers, mad dogs, house hunters and many more. John the Baptist even watched over the motorways. Also included are the patron saints of all countries in the world and a calendar of saints days.
