This book is born from practical situation, not theory.
The author has been working in the FBI, which means he has been working in a dead-or -alive situation.
This is the reason why the method he enlightens us works in a severe situation.
Acutally, I have not finished reading this book yet. However, it has a lot of tips that inspires me to try using. That is why I'm writing here what I tried using one of the methods mentioned in the book and talk about the results of the try.
The first tip is to repeat the words the other person was saying. This tips helps me to get information if you don't have enough to decide something.
The situation I faced today is in a barber shop. I decided the hairstyle and sat on the chair saying '2 block'. The barber said to me, "OK, but how much should I cut?". And then, I answered "I wonder how much should be cut." The barber said "how about 1 or 2 cm? It is the length that has extended since your last cut." I answered "Please do it, but I care about a little bit about the balance when it extends." She responded "If so, I recommend more cut on side, and you'll have better balance".
By this conversation, I was able to get information about hair style that fits me better.
I may not say that I managed to use the method properly, but it was fun when I am aware how I am going to respond in any conversation.
