How to Argue with a Cat: INTERNATIONAL EDITION

Autor Jay Heinrichs
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 iun 2018

Learn how to persuade cats--the world's most skeptical and cautious negotiators--with this primer on rhetoric and argument from the New York Times bestselling author of Thank You for Arguing

Cats are skilled manipulators who can talk you into just about anything without a single word (or maybe a meow or two). They can get you to drop whatever you're doing and play with them. They can make you serve their dinner way ahead of schedule. They can get you to sit down right this instant and provide a lap. On the other hand, try getting a cat to do what you want....

While it's hard, persuading a cat is possible. And after that, persuading humans becomes a breeze, and that is what you will learn in this book. How to Argue with a Cat will teach you how to:

- Hold an intelligent conversation--one of the few things easier to do with a cat than a human.
- Argue logically, even if your opponent is furry and irrational.
- Hack up a fallacy (the hairball of logic).
- Make your body do the talking (cats are very good at this).
- Master decorum: the art of fitting in with cats, venture capitalists, or humans.
- Learn the wisdom of predator timing to pounce at the right moment.
- Get someone to do something or stop doing it.
- Earn any creature's respect and loyalty.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

If you can persuade a cat ... you can persuade anyone. This is the essential guide to getting your way.
Jay Heinrichs, award-winning author of Thank You for Arguing and advisor to the Pentagon, NASA and Fortune 500 companies, distils a lifetime of negotiating and rhetoric to show you how to win over anyone - from colleagues and bosses, to friends and partners at home (and even the most stubborn of feline adversaries).
You'll learn to:
Perfect your timing - learn exactly when to pounce
Get your body language, tone and gesture just right
Think about what your opponent wants - always offer a comfy lap
Lure them in by making them think they have the power
The result? A happy, hopefully scratch-free, resolution.
'Jay Heinrichs knows a thing or two about arguing' The Times
'A master rhetorician and persuasion guru' Salon
'You got a bunch of logical engineers to inject pathos
into their arguments ... it works!' NASA engineer
