2015 Reprint of 1957 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. "Active Listening", first developed by Rogers and Farson, is a therapeutic technique designed to promote positive change in the client. Active listening is a communication technique used in counselling, training and conflict resolution, which requires the listener to feed back what they hear to the speaker, by way of re-stating or paraphrasing what they have heard in their own words, to confirm what they have heard and moreover, to confirm the understanding of both parties. It continues to have a lasting influence to this day.

Description is not what it is.

Description is not what it is.
Would like to give negative star but not possible. It is not what I bought based on the description by the seller! It is a Hanukkah coloring book. Pretty ridiculous! Wouldn't buy it unless you like coloring.
Thank you for your feedback

    This is a quick read but an important one! This book is appropriate for anyone who would like to learn or sharpen their interpersonal skill of active listening.
  • Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2024
    I found it a bit dated in the sense that it sounds just a bit sexist. But the advice and insight of how to do active listening remains very strong!

    The publisher has spoke about high standards that they use when publishing a book. The material seems to focus around research that was done in the 1950's. It is very topical, not in-depth, and seems very out of date. Sorry bad purchase for me, not the first time this publisher disappointed me. Maybe the last time I buy from publisher.

    So, I thought I was purchasing a book not a pamphlet. Information was helpful but disappointed and feeling cheated or misled. Item description should list this as a very quick guide or pamphlet, not a book.

    Excellent. I gave this to a friend who talks all the time and who feels the need to express every opinion that crosses the cranium.

    Great work, a little dated in terminology but anyone literate should be able to interpret.

    Highly recommend this book. Very short, however, its full of useful information. The application of ideas presented will improve communication.

    Report
  • Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2024
    This book, despite the recent copyright, is an excerpt or reproduction of a piece written in the early 50’s. While the principles about good listening are still applicable, the presentation immediately turned me off to the point that I quit reading. Every example seems to involve men in places like factories. If there is a female pronoun in the book, I couldn’t find it. I have had an extensive class on listening in the past, so I know there is useful, and much more contemporary, material to be had. I only bought the book because it’s required for a class, and I intend to tell the instructor that he needs to find something besides this to assign.
