From the Publisher
What do these statements have in common?
"You're lazy." "That was really selfish." "You're not there for me." "One just has to." "You never listen." "Leave me alone."
They are expressions of pain. They usually generate more pain. We hear or say them often. They are signs of communication breakdown. Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is specifically designed to help people connect deeply with each other, avoid creating communication pain, and to heal it quickly and gently when it occurs. NVC is a set of concepts and tools that helps people maintain their focus on life enhancing issues - like people's well-being and how to improve it - rather than evaluative issues like right, wrong, who's to blame, or what people should do. Its tools help people remember the important points and critical tasks that tend to inspire compassion, connection, and generosity in their relationships, and help them regain these when they are temporarily lost. And, only one person needs to know these tools.

This works!,
By Ryushin (San Diego County) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Nonviolent Communication: The Basics As I Know and Use Them (Paperback)
This book is short and to the point. It offers a guide to change how you verbally interact with people. The information works for personal as well as business relationships. This book helped resolve conflicts that arose in an international research laboratory with members from a variety of countries. Once all laboratory members had read the book the exasperation level dropped off and people were able to communicate without conflict. Hmmm...maybe the world should read it.

This review is from: Nonviolent Communication: The Basics As I Know and Use Them (Paperback)
This book was shorter than I expected, but I found it to be helpful in learning more about non-violent communication.
