The Art of Argument. Iryna Khomenko

In a world where we communicate every day, the ability to argue is becoming one of the key skills. However, even experienced professionals often have to deal with the fact that they are not heard, interrupted, and their words are twisted.
This is a book about how to argue correctly. How to prepare for arguments and what to expect, how to build an argument and defend your point of view, as well as how to criticize the position of another and resist unconstructive criticism, how to recognize that you are being manipulated and point it out.
“Arguing is the art of not only speaking yourself, but also hearing the other person,” Iryna Khomenko is convinced. In her book, the Doctor of Philosophy explains how to master the art of a reasoned argument, in which there is no place for personal differences or quarrels. The author explores the history of arguments, starting with Socrates, and uses practical examples to explain how to remain calm and impartial during the most heated discussions, without succumbing to emotional manipulation.
