Description

Each of us often encounters situations where our opponents, trying to get their way, use methods considered “improper” among educated people. Such opponents ignore our arguments, twist our words, interrupt us, speak to us in raised tones, and even act rudely. They behave defiantly, yet seem right to those around them: people listen to them, obey them. It seems to us that there is no logic in their words or behavior—but such logic does exist, and its goal is to persuade others that the opponent is right.

In this book, Vladimir Tarasov describes the concept of pragmatic logic introduced by him into broad use and examines the techniques of this logic and their application in specific situations. This book will help you achieve your goals in relationships with people who are not used to following strict logic and rules of decency—and also to resist manipulations from such people.
