Tongue Fu!
By
Sam Horn

Goes along with several of the books in this category, it's only fair we include it here. Jack Canfield of the Chicken Soup books says this:
Tongue Fu! is a handbook for verbal self-defense that provides dozens of real-life, constructive alternatives to giving a tongue lashing or to being tongue-tied.

Verbal Judo : The Gentle Art of Persuasion
By
George Thompson
-
Dr. Thompson has a doctorate in English and is/was a law enforcement officer. His books are readable in plain language. While his work is ideal for law enforcement, I recommend this book for everyone.
If these techniques can work in law enforcement, they can work anywhere!
Highly recommended.
