Everyone knows that it is expensive to consult a lawyer. A phone conversation is billed by the minute. The assumption is that lawyers have a level of expertise that justifies the (very high) fee for service contract. I should have paid more attention to the fact that this book was written by two lawyers before I bought it. First of all, their experience is with law, and the 'expertise' espoused in this book is little more than good manners. Secondly, most of the book has print on less than 1/6th of any given page. You are purchasing a book that by it’s cover and size looks like it might have some substance but in the consideration of typeface alone, this is sincerely lacking.In my recent effort to investigate issues related to conversation I stumbled across “Miss Manner’s Basic Training” by Judith Martin at my public library. It is replete with real examples of ‘conversations gone bad’ and Miss Manners’ suggestions of how to respond. It’s practicality is enhanced by the humor with which Miss Manners brings to her view of life. If you want fluff about ‘being in the moment” or you want to pay for someone to tell you to use patience, seek understanding, and forgive then buy “Face-to-Face.” To me the book smacks of two lawyers trying to make more money.

FaceToFace Robert A Esperti Renno L Peterson 9780985045630 Books Reviews
This book is a gift! As an Octogenarian I read it through and recognized my faults in several parts; but mostly in Part 1- JUDGES. My daughter catches me on this bad habit. It occurs when speaking or listening to close family members. Perhaps it is because of my advanced years; but that is not an excuse and I must learn to curb my desire to judge others. In Part 2- I hit upon LOOK BEHIND THE WORDS. This appears many times in my mind as I am listening to others. I have tried to divert my inner thoughts while trying to understand the speaker's comments and I think that I am improving. I am making new friends by understanding other's views. In Part 3- INTRODUCING THE POWER OF CONVERSATIONAL INSIGHTS. Fourth Insight - Suspending judgment. I must remember that all of my friends and relatives have different backgrounds; education, families, ages, etc. I must respect their views. Part 4- BUILDING BLOCKS AND INSIGHTS put it all in perspective for me I can use it all! MHE
Face to Face is all about relations between people. I find it sad and frustrating that people would rather text or email than spend a few minutes having an interactive conversation with a friend, colleague or relative. Technology is a great practical tool, but should not be our primary source of communication with others. This book gets back to the basics of communication between people. Very easy to read, fun to read and every parent should have their children read it. Face to Face-we all need to do more of it. Great book.
Face to Face by brilliant authors Esperti and Peterson brings to life in the most understandable way the keys to effective conversation for the purpose of building positive relationships that are applicable everywhere.........in marriage, business, the professions, among friends, in negotiation, in conflict, in dealing with children and other family.......in life anywhere and everywhere.
What I learned is enhancing my relationships immeasurably already, and it cannot help but do the same for others who spend a little time with this insightful read!
This wonderful book can be most succinctly described as a modern take on the Dale Carnegie classic How To Win Friends and Influence People. It is at once entertaining and thought provoking and, in my opinion, belongs on every bookshelf.
Face to Face reminds you of basic truths about how we engage others, nurture relationships, and make new friends. Then it offers constructive ways in which you can improve in each . In some sections, you may be left wanting more from the authors until you realized that the more has to come from you and your own interactive experiences with those around you.
I was left with two resolutions after reading this gem -to look for more from these insightful and entertaining authors and to obtain the book in hard cover for my own notes and further conversation.
In this day and age when everyone is either texting or sitting at a computer, it is a pleasure to read a book all about how to have , and having a conversation. Everywhere you go you will see groups of three or four middle school, high school and college age kids all sitting at a table together and everyone of them is engrossed on their own smart phone, I phone, etc. NO ONE talks. Parents and children are out together for dinner, all texting on their phones or playing games, and having no inter-action what so ever.
My great concern is that the younger generations will not know how to have a conversation with each other, let alone family, friends , teachers, business associates, etc. FACE TO FACE gives you all the tools anyone can use (in a delightful, easy, interesting read), and should be required reading in every school.
I have given the book to all my children and grandchildren ranging in ages from 7 to 51, and they have all found great ideas, and lots to things to have conversations about.
Face to Face is a must read for anyone who believes in the importance of better relationships with loved ones, friends, clients, acquaintances, patients, colleagues, associates, and anyone else. I've known Bob Esperti and Renno Peterson for decades, and I've always admired their ability to communicate effectively - not only as outstanding speakers, conversationalists, and writers, but also as excellent listeners. Their book, Face to Face, explains how we all may become better communicators and, in so doing, enhance our relationships with everyone with whom we come in contact. Face to Face will benefit those of us who recognize a need to communicate better, and will help the excellent communicators among us better understand why they communicate so well and improve upon their already top notch skills.
