Cuteness has taken the planet by storm. Global sensations Hello Kitty and Pokémon, the works of artists Takashi Murakami and Jeff Koons, Heidi the cross-eyed opossum and E.T. - all reflect its gathering power.

In The Power of Cute, Simon May provides nuanced and surprising answers.

Simon May argues that procrastination - unlike indolence, with which it is often confused - has blessings as well as dangers
