Story
In Joel's Schwartzberg's 10-plus years as a strategic communications trainer, the biggest obstacle he's come across - one that connects directly to nervousness, stammering, rambling, and epic fail - is that most speakers and writers don't have a point. They typically have just a title, a theme, a topic, an idea, an assertion, a catchphrase, or even something much less. This book shows you how to identify your point, leverage it, stick to it, and sell it and how to train others to identify and successfully make their own points.

For all of neuroscience's advances, we've made little progress on its biggest question: How do simple cells in the brain create intelligence? Jeff Hawkins and his team discovered that the brain uses map-like structures to build a model of the world - not just one model, but hundreds of thousands of models of everything we know. This discovery allows Hawkins to answer important questions about how we perceive the world, why we have a sense of self, and the origin of high-level thought.

Immensely exciting

Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Get what you want without compromising who you are: the new rules of persuasion to influence others for good.
We're all nice. In fact, we're told we're too nice and we have to change to succeed: 'play the game!'; 'beat them down!'; 'toughen up!'. Do we have to choose between betraying our own values and being left behind without a voice? Absolutely not. We can naturally be persuasive and successful every day without making enemies of ourselves or other people.
Influence is a science, and renowned Yale professor Zoe Chance will help you master it in this fascinating book. Drawing on the latest behavioural research, entertaining real-life stories and the skills she teaches on her sell-out Yale University MBA course, Zoe Chance unpacks what influence is and how we are persuaded before setting out a series of powerful skills you can adopt to master the art of persuasion and influence. Her techniques include the Magic Question, Powerful Listening, the What Would It Take Question and Building Support. She also looks at how to use influence for maximum positive impact in the world - and how to defend yourself against the 'dark arts' of persuasion by other less scrupulous individuals or institutions.
Bold, entertaining and efficacious, this indispensable book is a call to action for all the nice people in the world wanting to practice influence without resorting to manipulation, bullying or corruption to create a brighter more positive future.

Expected more
Excellent narration by Zoe and congratulations are in order for assembling this piece of work - this said, unfortunately, I was left disappointed.
Given the impressive clout of the author, I was expecting big things from this book, and it largely underwhelmed.
I am well-versed in the field of 'Influence' and was excited to closely study these 'pages' to further develop my knowledge in this space... Alas, not to be, perhaps, this book was written for a more introductory audience - if that's you, you're sure to love it.
Notwithstanding, if you're experienced in the field of influence, human behaviour and Influence, and looking to expand the breadth of your expertise, this is probably not the best book for you.
