How to Win Any Argument

Robert Mayer

Summary

This guide to negotiating is “mental judo, where you use the other guy’s energy to win. It’s mind-set. It’s charisma” (New York Times). 
 
The art of the argument. It’s mysterious and powerful. It’s the art of having things go your way. But it’s also the art of getting out of your own way. It’s having the Moves. But it’s also about having the Touch. Welcome to the “new normal.” It’s a time and place where conversations are tougher, disagreements more frequent, consensus more difficult to find than ever before. This new world demands three new “right for our times” chapters:“Heavy Metal Moves” and “Taboo Tactics”: When you’re being dissed, dismissed, and dumped on. Or when you need to break through.“Waging Peace: The Mediation, Arbitration, and Collaborative Practice Game”: Because there’s more conflict but less money to hire litigation lawyers.“The World Has Gotten Smaller”: Learn to identify deep-rooted cultural differences, and how to act and react. 
 
“This will be one of the most important books you’ve read in a long time.” —Larry King 
 
“Two thumbs up! A whole new way of being smart about all the people in your life—coworkers, bosses, family, the people you do business with. Bob Mayer tells you how to finesse the results you want without pleading, prodding, pushing, or pulling.” —Cuba Gooding, Jr., Academy Award–winning actor

The Press Gang - Tales from the...

David Kenny

In September 1931, Pádraig Pearse's mother started a revolution in Dublin. She pushed a button, and the presses began rolling at Éamon de Valera's legendary Irish Press Newspaper Group, changing the landscape of Irish journalism forever. In The Press Gang, for the first time, fifty-five of its former writers and editors celebrate its glory days, from the 1950s to its closure in May 1995 - when the pub was the real office, and newspapers were full of insane, and insanely talented, people. There are stories of IRA gunmen in the front office, the reporter who broke his leg in two places (Mulligan's and the White Horse), Mary Kenny challenging the old boys' network, tea with Prince Charles, Johnny Rotten in a Dublin jail cell, and the hunt for Don Tidey.
The Press Gang paints a poignant and hilarious pen-picture of an industry that has changed beyond recognition, and recalls an age of characters, chancers, geniuses, and above all, brilliant journalism.
