The Argument Culture: Moving from Debate to Dialogue

Author: Deborah Tannen

Narrator: Deborah Tannen

Abridged: 3 hr 7 min

Format: Digital Audiobook

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio

Published: 03/01/1998

Synopsis

The bestselling author of "You Just Don't Understand" returns with a penetrating look at how we, as a culture, rarely discuss or debate anymore. Instead we argue, and the results, as Tannen spells out can be disastrous. Tannen explains how the media, educators, and politicians give credence to many harmful and false ideas just in the effort to present both sides of every story.
