商品描述
Never before has humanity done so much talking... But is anyone listening? For that matter, are people ever speaking to each other?
We need to acknowledge that speech, as we know it, has never been so debased. We live in a world full of empty, degraded, and potentially violent speech: a daily reality that confronts us in the workplace, in the media, on the streets, on the internet and in our political lives. Verbal clashes are commonplace, while proper dialogue is rare.
Gérald Garutti pushes for a return to a more constructive and responsible form of speech. He lays the groundwork for a humanistic approach: one which, contrary to the dominant culture of ignoring and humiliating others, emphasizes listening to them and mastering speech as a way of connecting. The arts of speech can contribute to the reconciliation of tensions in our society and to the realization of our full humanity.
Watch Your Words is a stunning manifesto for anyone interested in how we might better communicate with each other.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
「人類從未如此多地交談……但有誰在傾聽呢？更進一步說，人們真的在彼此交談嗎？」
我們需要承認，語言，正如我們所知的，從未如此貶值。我們生活在一個充滿空洞、退化和潛在暴力言論的世界中：這是我們在工作場所、媒體、街道、互聯網以及政治生活中每天面對的現實。言語衝突司空見慣，而適當的對話卻十分稀少。
Gérald Garutti 提倡回歸一種更具建設性和負責任的言語形式。他為人文主義的方法奠定了基礎：這種方法與主流文化中忽視和羞辱他人的做法相反，強調傾聽他人並掌握言語作為連結的方式。言語的藝術可以促進我們社會中緊張關係的和解，並實現我們的完整人性。
《注意你的言辭》是一本驚人的宣言，適合任何對如何更好地與彼此溝通感興趣的人。
