See this content in the original post

Join me in my conversation with Mehdi Hasan to discuss his new book, Win Every Argument: The Art of Debating, Persuading, and Public Speaking. Arguments are everywhere, Hasan argues, and form the lifeblood of democracy as the only surefire way to establish the truth. In this discussion we  explore the art of argument and rhetoric, and  communicating with confidence and success whether around the dining room table or before millions of people on TV or social media.
