Ever wondered what it’s like to get people to do whatever you want, whenever you want?

We all know people who are incredibly persuasive. With effortless charm, they manage to somehow gain our trust, interest and support, time and time again. Is it a gift they are born with? Is it all an illusion?

No, it’s the art of persuasion and you can learn it too.

Based on years of analysing the behaviours and mind-sets of the most persuasive people around, Persuasion gives you the magic formula to master the power of persuasion – the ultimate way to achieve success in work and life.

A rare 'self-help' book - marvellously readable and fun. Hugely to be recommended.

作者简介
James Borg is a practising work psychologist and business consultant. He became interested in magic and 'mind-reading' at the age of 9 and subsequently was - a few years later - admitted as one of the youngest-ever members of the Magic Circle. He reveals in Persuasion that there is a lot we can learn from magician's tricks to help us gain persuasive powers to use in work and life.
