I just went to Amazon to commend your book, and found over 100 overwhelmingly favorable plaudits! Congratulations!!
I will be bringing your book to the attention of students and faculty at Columbia and at Teacher's College's Gottesman Library, starting with my University Seminar on May 5th and my next Socratic Conversation on May 29thl; disseminating info. about it to the networks deriving from my books (Peak Learning, Socrates Way, etc.; and suggesting review and comments to the editors of several robust subscriber lists such as www.conversationmatters.com.
On Friday, I will be inviting you to our invitational symposium THE POWER OF CONVERSATION at Faculty House here on campus, in early July (date now being finalized). One of the slogans of this event will be "Everything Happens Through Conversation" (with robust suitable credit to you of course!). We'll have declarations by you and several other champions/experts like the ones on last evening's panel: TED-tight (6 minutes max.) and extemporaneous (no prepared papers). We'll move swiftly into Action/Deliverables/Behavioral Innovations/Outcomes as stressed by several of your speakers yesterday.
