- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The authors offer reasons and tips for confronting people who you need to have that difficult conversation with. Their reasoning and principles are extremely sound and valuable. The tips about how to defuse the common ways people try to sidetrack these types of conversations were especially helpful. This is a message I definately needed to hear and to put into practice. If you have trouble confronting people in a loving yet firm manner--and who doesn't--then it's definately worth your while to read this book.
