Conversation: A History of a Declining Art

Conversation: A History of a Declining Art

by Stephen Miller (Author)

Synopsis

Taking an historical and philosophical view of the subject of conversation, the author reveals why good conversation matters, and why it is in decline. He cites that technology, insistence on unguarded forthrightness, and the fear of being judgemental as powerful forces that diminish the art of conversation.
