Got some solid knowledge from this book. I will probably never have to negotiate with a “devil” but knowing how to approach these types of situations in general I found very interesting and even helpful in the face of a household dispute.

I wanted so much to learn something from this book but ultimately I felt disappointed. I got the sense that the author's take on negotiation amounts to "be prepared to concede something" or "be prepared to accept less than you were hoping for". It felt a little defeatist in it's style and probably speaks more to the mindset than to the skills needed to be a strong negotiator. The case studies and examples were very generic and not very 'real life' - just my opinion but they felt a little to idealistic rather than honest examples.

Lacking Oomf!!

Good begining, long stories, little point, do not recommend for listening of short clips as it's hard to get to the point. Might be a subjective review.

Found this totally waste of time and money. He tells very long stories nearly 1 hour long to appoint that you get bored and you skip the session. I did that a few times before I knew the whole book was finished and I had not learned a single new thing.

No advice, just long stories- don’t waste ur time
