Choosing Civility: The Twenty-Five Rules of Considerate Conduct by P. M. Forni
For most people, thoughtful behaviour and common decency are in short supply, or simply forgotten in hurried lives of emails, mobile phones and multi-tasking. In CHOOSING CIVILITY, civility expert P M Forni identifies the 25 rules that are most essential in connecting effectively and happily with others. Each rule is briefly explained in clear, witty and, well, civilised language. For example: - Think Twice Before Asking Favours - Give Constructive Criticism - Refrain from Idle Complaints - Respect Others' Opinions - Don't Shift Responsibility and Blame - Care for Your Guests - Accept and Give Praise
