I Disagree - by Jessica Tarlov (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The outspoken liberal voice on the Fox News show The Five shows us how to stay true to our values, find common ground, and communicate with confidence when engaging across political and social divides.

When you're outnumbered four to one on a daily basis, you better know your stuff. When you're outnumbered four to one on the highest-rated show on cable news, you better have your beliefs on lockdown. Welcome to the world of Jessica Tarlov, an unflappable liberal voice on Fox News Channel's The Five.

In the conservative fishbowl of The Five, Tarlov is no stranger to navigating thorny, often highly contentious political debates with poise, authenticity, and conviction. In this riveting guide, Jessica Tarlov shows us how she does it. Because at some point or other, we all face disagreements and fierce debates--whether with colleagues, family, or friends--and want to walk away with both our values and our relationships intact.

Tarlov models an important and accessible route to building bravery for these conversations. Now, she demonstrates that navigating contentious situations is a skill that requires radical honesty, knowing how to engage with numbers and statistics, understanding when to listen and when to talk, and articulating the common threads that unite us all. Tarlov has honed these skills with practice, and here, she reveals her tricks of the trade for the first time.

Whether you find yourself at a charged dinner-time debate with the in-laws, or in a tricky conversation with your boss, Jessica Tarlov will teach you how to stand up for what you believe in, even if it means standing alone--and why standing alone doesn't mean standing apart.
