    About this audiobook

    This is the world of pre-suasion, where subtle turns of phrase, seemingly insignificant visual cues and apparently unimportant details of location can prime people to say yes even before they are asked. It’s a world where the cautious blurt out personal information if asked a particular initial question, where online purchases are influenced by unrelated background images, and where exam results are affected by the layout of the classroom. It’s a world you can master. If you understand the tools of pre-suasion, you will better placed to win a debate, get support for an idea or cause, promote a campaign - even persuade yourself to do something you find difficult.

    Drawing on the latest research, and packed with fascinating case studies, Pre-Suasion is both a rigorous work of cutting-edge scholarship and a compelling account of the strange workings of the human mind. It’s also a supremely practical guide to enhancing your powers of influence.

      There are several chapters where the narration ends abruptly or it’s simply cut off right in the middle of a point which was disappointing. Overall it just makes you want to read/listen to the proper book so on that extent one could say it worked as a teaser but not as a summary.
    • 1/5
      Awfully awful narration. Please do not narrate more to make the listeners happy.
    • 1/5
      The worst narrator i have ever had to suffer. Awful. He should quit
    • 3/5
      Way too short to do any of the content justice.
