Book Reviews of Tongue Fu! : How to Deflect, Disarm, and Defuse Any Verbal Conflict
Book Review: Back to Words, not Weapons
Summary: 5 Stars
Easy to read! Funny and Smart! This book is a must have for all of us out there who deal with people that take little care in what they say. Life is stressful and often times that stress seeps into the way people talk to each other. This book not only teaches us what to say when people are being careless with us, it helps us identify those moments when we have let our own frustration come through in our words, as well.
Tongue Fu! is an artfully constructed package of lessons that move us to use our words to communicate rather than attack or vent. In our quest for information may have abandoned tact in search for clarity. However, it is not necessary to be rude when being honest. Tongue Fu! gives real life examples of the common ways people unintentionally mistreat others by taking less than the necessary care with our words. Each example comes with an explanation of why our usual words can harm as well as alternatives that can help.
