Conversorum: 200 Conversation Topics to Twitch Those Curious Minds - Softcover

"200 topics of pure solid mind altering debate fuelled delirium. I have had a flick through, and do like the way the author has succinctly laid out each topic in a solid debate like format, together with the use of screen shots of his favourite movies captioned with witty anecdotes that capture the essence of the debating topic." ~Shady (amazon.co.uk Feb16);"And it is an excellent book, well-produced, and worthy of a page caress or two. At one level it is highly provocative, at another, he has simply formulated questions concerning topics that many thoughtful members of society, clearly a serious minority, have considered" ~John P Jones III (amazon.co.uk Jul14);"Pick up this book and flick though this 465 pager and you could be forgiven if you thought it was a mini-encyclopaedia on life" ~Sudha K (amazon.co.uk Dec14);"No answers are given, there are no 'rights' or 'wrongs'. I found it a stimulating book for browsing, allowing personal reflection and sometimes insight into the 'big questions'" ~Kitty (amazon.co.uk Apr14);"This book is in some ways a reflection of the world we live in and it would be interesting to open this book in 20 or 30 years again to find out how our views on these issues have changed" ~Olga N (amazon.co.uk Feb15);"The author has given us a book/game asking us to challenge our own views on several topical issues with his own tongue in cheek additions to ignite the conversation. I can see this working really well in schools and colleges to encourage students to improve on their oral rhetoric" ~R Nad (amazon.co.uk Feb14);"Since receiving the book I've very much struggled to put it down. It's a very well written and interesting book with the most unusual concept" ~David (amazon.co.uk Jul13);
