Book excerpt: Conversation: Striving, Surviving, and Thriving presents a psychological-evolutionary rationale for everyday discourse and a method for analyzing conversations. As an evolved form of direct action, conversation empowers humans to relentlessly seek good physical and mental states by discovering life-enhancing messages and relationships. Properly analyzed conversations disclose our innermost desires and concerns, and promote self-enriching insights. Conversation: Striving, Surviving, and Thriving answers such questions as: What can I do to make my conversations more satisfying? What is conversational style? How is it that some people are chatty and others reticent? Where does conversational content come from? Why am I more likely to telephone my mother than my father? What are the similarities and differences between man-talk and woman-talk? Are some people simply not worth the conversational effort? Why is gossip enticing? Do I talk with the same persons about the same things? Incisive and eminently useful, Conversation: Striving, Surviving, and Thriving illuminates the hopes and dreams encoded in everyday banter, enabling us to more effectively talk our way to feeling good.
Download or read book A Very Stable Genius written by Philip Rucker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant #1 bestseller. “This taut and terrifying book is among the most closely observed accounts of Donald J. Trump’s shambolic tenure in office to date." - Dwight Garner, The New York Times Washington Post national investigative reporter Carol Leonnig and White House bureau chief Philip Rucker, both Pulitzer Prize winners, provide the definitive insider narrative of Donald Trump’s presidency “I alone can fix it.” So proclaimed Donald J. Trump on July 21, 2016, accepting the Republican presidential nomination and promising to restore what he described as a fallen nation. Yet as he undertook the actual work of the commander in chief, it became nearly impossible to see beyond the daily chaos of scandal, investigation, and constant bluster. In fact, there were patterns to his behavior and that of his associates. The universal value of the Trump administration was loyalty—not to the country, but to the president himself—and Trump’s North Star was always the perpetuation of his own power. With deep and unmatched sources throughout Washington, D.C., Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker reveal the forty-fifth president up close. Here, for the first time, certain officials who felt honor-bound not to divulge what they witnessed in positions of trust tell the truth for the benefit of history. A peerless and gripping narrative, A Very Stable Genius not only reveals President Trump at his most unvarnished but shows how he tested the strength of America’s democracy and its common heart as a nation.

Download or read book A Rhetorical Conversation written by Jordan D. Finkin and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-01-18 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Jewish language. The fact that Jews speak and write in distinctive ways is well known. (The journalist Mike Royko called it “Hebonics.”) These forms of expression actually draw from many sources and have been employed in popular culture from Henry Roth’s Call It Sleep to the novels of Saul Bellow to contemporary television. What has received less attention is what allowed these modern forms to flow from a rich body of Yiddish literature. This book fills that gap by exploring the language of modern Yiddish literature, addressing emblematically why Jews answer a question with a question. Through a series of case studies, A Rhetorical Conversation explores various distinctive aspects of Yiddish literature to explain the nature and importance of Jewish discourse: the way of speaking, writing, arguing, and thinking developed by Yiddish culture based on prolonged and intimate contact with traditional texts.
