The Lost Art of Listening, First Edition Bewertungen

What is true listening and why, the author asks, has it become a near?rarity in modern life? Nichols shows how to utilize this art by which we use empathy to reach the space across us' to improve and repair relationships with spouses, lovers, relatives, children, friends, and colleagues, and even how to boost one's own listenability.' He also explains what listening isn't, explaining why people don't listen and listing obstacles to listening (especially defensiveness owing to emotional overreaction). Humor, true life examples and simple exercises make this a practical and even entertaining self?help guide. - Publishers Weekly
