5.0 out of 5 stars
Great college graduation gift,
By A Customer
This review is from: B.S. Detecting; the Flip Side of Success-Possible Communicating (Paperback)
I purchased this book as a graduation gift for my granddaughter. Of course, I had to read it first, just to check it out. ;)I wish I'd known before what this book reveals. Mz Thompson's behind-the-scenes knowledge of the ad industry, how to use and misuse words to entice us to "buy" what someone is selling, whether it's a product or just some B.S. was enlightening. I hope she writes another one. I'd purchase that one too.

This review is from: B.S. Detecting; the Flip Side of Success-Possible Communicating (Paperback)
If you know a parent struggling with communicating with teenagers or preteens, this book would be a real help. And anymarried couple would find it helpful in discussing decisions or disagreements without loss of harmony. The book would also be a boon to a youngster. Remember all the difficult situations when you weren't sure what to say, or what to make of what was said to you? Imagine having a book that could tell you how to use words to help you progress in life, and how to deal with verbal abuse!
