The School of Life - Arguments

• Hardback book, 153 pages
• Dimensions: 155 x 110 mm

We need a lot of help in order to master the complex art of converting our poisonous argument into effective and compassionate dialogues.
An average couple will have between thirty and fifty significant arguments a year – and yet we’re seldom taught very much about why they happen and how they could grow a little less intense. This is a guide to arguments in love: it teaches us why they might occur, what their symptoms are, how we could learn some wiser ways of communicating and how we would ideally patch up after a fight.

Focusing on twenty common arguments – including sex, money, in-laws and the state of the bathroom – we recognise our own antics whilst learning how to skirt certain conflicts going forward. The tragedy of every sorry argument is that it is constructed around a horrific mismatch between the message we so badly want to send and the manner in which we are able to deliver it. A bad argument is a failed endeavour to communicate; this is a definitive guide to how we might argue better.

Topics Include:
• A Brief History of Arguments
• 20 Types of Argument
• Towards Less Bitter Arguments

The School of Life is an organisation built to help us find calm, self-understanding, resilience, and connection especially during troubled times. We place emphasis on the need to understand ourselves better, so that we can secure serenity and make optimally reliable decisions, particularly around love and work. Our ideas are divided into six key topics, that together contribute to the calmer, more resilient and self-aware lives we deserve: Self-Knowledge, Relationships, Work, Calm, Sociability, Leisure & Culture
