Audiobook How to Have (Seemingly) Impossible Conversations (A Very Practical Guide to Getting Along with Virtually Anyone)
Authors Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay. Read by Jan Eisler.
In the current climate, it seems impossible to have a reasonable conversation with someone who holds a different opinion. Whether you're posting your views on social media or talking to classmates at school or colleagues at work (or just hoping to survive a healthy family dinner with a stubborn relative), the dialogue ends the moment your views cross. Heated debates often end in insults and recriminations, both of which block any possibility of productive discussion. It almost seems as if everyone nowadays has their finger always ready on the trigger of their gun when they're having a conversation.
In the audiobook How to Have (Seemingly) Impossible Conversations, authors Peter Boghossian and James Lindsay introduce readers to straightforward and practical conversational techniques, that are essential to having conversations on controversial topics such as climate change, religious beliefs, Gender identity, racial issue, Poverty, immigration or the issue of controlling the sale of firearms.
Boghossian and Lindsay will teach you how to raise doubts in a dialogue and how to open your partner's mind afterwards. They take the reader step-by-step through different levels of conversation - from the very basics, such as tips and guidelines for conducting a good dialogue, to expert-level techniques that can be applied when talking to opinion extremists.
The audiobook is a useful guide for anyone who wants to learn how to have a polite conversation and who wants to ensure that their conversations with their partners are imbued with a desire for understanding and empathy.
The recording is based on Peter Boghossian and James Lindsay's book How to Have (Seemingly) Impossible Conversations (A Very Practical Guide to Getting Along with Practically Anyone) published in 2021.
