About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of How to Argue with a Cat written and read by Jay Heinrichs.

If you can persuade a cat ... you can persuade anyone. This is the essential guide to getting your way.

Jay Heinrichs, award-winning author of Thank You for Arguing and advisor to the Pentagon, NASA and Fortune 500 companies, distils a lifetime of negotiating and rhetoric to show you how to win over anyone - from colleagues and bosses, to friends and partners at home (and even the most stubborn of feline adversaries).

You'll learn to:

Perfect your timing - learn exactly when to pounce
Get your body language, tone and gesture just right
Think about what your opponent wants - always offer a comfy lap
Lure them in by making them think they have the power

The result? A happy, hopefully scratch-free, resolution.

'You got a bunch of logical engineers to inject pathos
into their arguments ... it works!' NASA engineer

Perhaps using cats as a metaphor was a poor idea? The story felt very rushed and each point was hardly talked about.

The title was very seductive yet the content couldn’t disappoint more. The books I’ve listened to in the past six years were exceptional. This is the first book that really upset me by not delivering what it claimed .
