Owens, Sonia R. Banks, Linda D. Anderson Narrator: Bahni Turpin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 42 minutes Release date: May 7, 2019 Genres: Communication Skills Publisher's Summary: Silent Agreements will help readers define the unspoken beliefs and expectations that might be causing dissatisfaction, unhappiness, and resentment in their relationships, giving them the tools to explore these agreements and work toward healthier communication with a partner, friend, boss, or family member. If you have relationships, you've likely been part of silent agreements. Silent agreements are the implicit 'rules' of your relationships that arise from unspoken beliefs and expectations that both parties hold, stemming from your earliest experiences and reinforced as you mature. They can sound something like 'The person who makes more money should pay for the dates,' or 'My boss doesn't offer me a raise, and he knows I won't ask for one.' These agreements can hinder your relationships, remaining undiscussed due to fear, aversion to conflict, feelings of obligation, or guilt. Because expectations so rarely line up and neither person will address the issue, a silent agreement can cause unhappiness and resentment on both sides. Clinical psychologists Drs. Anderson, Banks, and Owens will help you explore your agreements and work towards healthier communication with a partner, friend, boss, or family member. In the process, you'll learn more about your own motivations and how to dismantle the the beliefs that don't serve you. With guidelines and advice on how to have productive conversations about sex, money, commitment, family, the workplace, and health, this book will help you lift the silence and resolve those land-mine issues before they do irreparable damage.

Title: A Dialogue Concerning Oratory, or the Causes of Corrupt Eloquence Author: Publius Cornelius Tacitus Narrator: Leni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 1 minute Release date: January 1, 2016 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 7 Ratings of Narrator: 4.33 of Total 3 Genres: Communication Skills Publisher's Summary: The scene of the Dialogus de Oratoribus, as this work is commonly known, is laid in the sixth year of Vespasian, 75 a.D. The commentators are much divided in their opinions about the real author; his work they all agree is a masterpiece in the kind; written with taste and judgement; entertaining, profound, and elegant. It is normally considered to have been written by Tacitus, even though some ascribe it to Quintilian. The main subject is the decadence of oratory, for which the cause is said to be the decline of the education, both in the family and in the school, of the future orator. In a certain way, it can be considered a miniature art of rhetoric. (Summary by Leni)
