Description

Product DescriptionThis is a very enjoyable read as you learn how to better communicate. Adler shares an entertaining personal story in about every chapter. The appendix has an invaluable guide to leading book discussion groups. It has changed the way I lead colloquia and the results have been transformational. The depth of increased understanding is remarkable and potentially life changing. If you want the climax of your book groups to change from “where’s the cookies?” to brilliant epiphanies, take a look at this book. Also, you’ll see rhetoric in a whole new light after reading this.
