Most people would agree that thoughtful behavior and common
decency are in short supply, or simply forgotten in hurried
lives of emails, cellphones, and multi-tasking. In
Choosing Civility, P. M. Forni identifies the
twenty-five rules that are most essential in connecting
effectively and happily with others. In clear, witty, and,
well...civilized language, Forni covers topics that include:
* Think Twice Before Asking Favors * Give
Constructive Criticism * Refrain from Idle
Complaints * Respect Others' Opinions * Don't Shift
Responsibility and Blame * Care for Your Guests *
Accept and Give Praise
Finally, Forni provides
examples of how to put each rule into practice and so make
life-and the lives of others-more enjoyable, companionable,
and rewarding.
Choosing Civility is a simple,
practical, perfectly measured, and quietly magical handbook
on the lost art of civility and compassion.
