Where is this quote from? Need the Title of book and name of author. Thanks.?

Question:"You may laugh, but surveys prove that most of the English population equate good articulation with higher IQs, better looks, cleanliness, sex appeal and reliability. It's called Received Pronuciation."

I need to know Title and author of the book. Thanks.

Answers:
Really doesn't sound like Kathy Lette - are you sure that's the actual quote?
- Cobbett's Grammar: William, James Paul, and the Politics of Prescriptivism- by L.C. Mugglestone.
