"Does this book deliver on its promise of an effective way through sticky situations, whether 'with your babysitter or your biggest client'? It does." --The New York Times "These talented communicators blend a daunting array of disciplines into highly readable and practical advice." --Booklist "I'm on my third reading. Half the pages are dog-eared. This is a mind-bogglingly powerful book. For life." --Tom Peters "A user-friendly guide to mastering the talks we dread . . . a keeper." --Fast Company   "Emotional intelligence applied to life's toughest moments." --Daniel Goleman, bestselling author of Working with Emotional Intelligence "The only people who shouldn't read Difficult Conversations are those who never work with people, anywhere." --Peter M. Senge, bestselling author of The Fifth Discipline "How do you confront your ex-spouse who's late picking up the kids? How do you tell a client their project took longer than expected and the bill is twice as high? How do you say 'I'm sorry'? Start by picking up Difficult Conversations ." --Citizen " Difficult Conversations will be appreciated by readers who wish to improve oral communication in all aspects of their daily lives." --Library Journal "Stone, Patton, and Heen illustrate their points with anecdotes, scripted conversations and familiar examples in a clear, easy-to-browse format." --Publishers Weekly "The central insights of Difficult Conversations so resonate with common sense that it is easy to overlook just how remarkable of a book it is . . . a must-read." --Harvard Negotiation Law Review "Examples more clear-headed and advice more precise than we've seen before." --Dallas Morning News "Stone, Patton, and Heen have written an extremely clear and unpretentious exposition of how to develop effective communication skills and a guide to achieving openness and constructive outcomes in dialogue . . . this book is, and probably for some time to come will be definitive." --Southern Communication Journal

    The book arrived swiftly packaged in a protective plastic envelope, but it was a paperback not hardcover as listed. I contacted seller and they apologized, refunded me and suggested several things to do with the book after allowing me to keep it. I have gone ahead and ordered a hardcover from the same seller. I’m a repeat customer and hope to remain so. This mixup was a first, but I’m very impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. Kudos :)

  • READ NOW; this book is a game changer

    This should be required reading for anyone who speaks and/or has interpersonal relationships. I read it slowly and re-read many parts, to ensure I digested everything and found opportunities to practice the new skills/strategies.
