About the audiobook.
"Getting to Yes" is a book that focuses on the fundamentals of negotiation and focuses on the common mistakes that people make when making a negotiation. It mostly focuses on politics and work situations on the matter.
Personally, I enjoyed listening to this. I spent my time solving crosswords while doing so and passively agreed with the statements that it was making. Unfortunately, as I am not in a place where I'm meeting with bosses or actively following politics, I found that the examples were far fetched for my day to day life. Rather, I wish it brought in some more casual arguments like when it brought up a disagreement between a wife and a husband over their house.
Overall, it was an interesting topic and it is generally useful. I'd welcome anyone to pick up the audiobook, but maybe not a paperback as it does get repetitive at times.
