Summary

The backlash against poor language teaching has produced a rash of full-blown grammar books, but this uncomplicated and amusing user’s manual concentrates on the essentials. GOOD ENGLISH hacks away at the tangled thicket of confusions while never becoming a dull grammar lesson. Ideal for any English speaker uneasy about handling full-stops, commas and the dreaded apostrophe, it highlights the most common problems and solves them with style and a smile. GOOD ENGLISH has proved itself popular with universities and colleges, who have ordered it in considerable numbers. It will quickly convince you that mastering the basics of the language is simplicity itself – after all, you've been speaking it since childhood!

    Highly Effective Techniques to Persuade and Influence Anyone! – Vol. 2 
      
    Manipulation can take many different forms. It can be used as a way of asking for a favor or manipulating others without being aware of it. Essentially, this is a tactic that is used to get someone to do something important. The following audiobook discusses 30 techniques that you can use to help you control somebody properly. While many people will see manipulation as a dishonest act, something that is evil and difficult to counter, manipulation is actually manipulating others to do what you want them to do. Whether you're trying to sell a product, a service, or just get someone to do you a favor, you're going to learn that coercion will help you get those kinds of results. 
    The fact is, we are imperfect human beings. We have some vulnerabilities. And if you research and get to know these vulnerabilities, you're going to have a huge power in your hands. Once you learn the right manipulation techniques, the real ones, it's entirely possible to manipulate other people's thoughts and make them do what you want. 
    Here's what you'll master with this bundle (Vol. 1 and Vol. 2):Using body language to become a fantastic communicatorInterpreting gestures, and subtle signs to analyze othersPersuading people with easeRecognizing when someone is manipulating youDefending yourself from every type of manipulatorDealing with an abusive or manipulative partnerUsing manipulation as a means of persuasionRaising your emotional intelligence and self-awarenessKnowing exactly how to act in any type of social or work situation
