Story
MSNBC’s Mehdi Hasan isn’t one to avoid arguments. He relishes them as the lifeblood of democracy and the only surefire way to establish the truth. Arguments help us solve problems, uncover new ideas we might not have considered, and nudge our disagreements toward mutual understanding. A good argument, made in good faith, has intrinsic value—and can also simply be fun.

an excuse to push the authors agenda
Reviewed: 07-13-24
this book isn't about arguing or winning an argument. it's about the author pushing his beliefs. it's not helpful in anyway. its an extremist trying to be heard.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

not exactly what I expected
Reviewed: 12-31-21
I thought this was a bit more behind the scenes not so much an explanation of DnD but overall not bad. it had enough behind the scenes stuff to keep me satiated. overall it was a nice read but probably would have been even better if one of the cast had done it.
