Publisher Description
Most people would agree that thoughtful behavior and common decency are
in short supply, or simply forgotten in hurried lives of emails,
cellphones, and multi-tasking. In Choosing Civility, P. M. Forni
identifies the twenty-five rules that are most essential in connecting
effectively and happily with others. In clear, witty, and,
well...civilized language, Forni covers topics that include:
- Think Twice Before Asking Favors
- Give Constructive Criticism
- Refrain from Idle Complaints
- Respect Others' Opinions
- Don't Shift Responsibility and Blame
- Care for Your Guests
- Accept and Give Praise
Choosing Civility is a simple, practical, perfectly measured, and quietly magical handbook on the lost art of civility and compassion.
