Summary of Peter Boghossian & James A. Lindsay's How to Have Impossible Conversations

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Even if you strongly disagree with someone, you should still be able to have a conversation with them. This is extremely difficult in our current climate, but it is not impossible. #2 Impossibility of a conversation doesn’t mean that someone is unwilling to speak with you. It doesn’t mean that you can’t have a conversation at all. It simply means that the conversation might feel futile because it takes place across a gulf of disagreement in ideas, beliefs, morals, politics, or worldviews. #3 The most effective way to change someone’s mind is through conversation. This is because conversation is a process done with someone, and it can be a gentle and effective intervention on their beliefs. #4 Having productive conversations with people who hold radically different views is becoming increasingly important in a highly polarizing world. Learn how to have these conversations and more in this book.
