Book
The persuaders : at the front lines of the fight for hearts, minds, and democracy / Anand Giridharadas.
"An insider account of activists, politicians, educators, and everyday citizens working to change minds, bridge divisions, and save democracy"-- Provided by publisher
The lifeblood of any free society is persuasion: changing other people's minds in order to change things. Giridharadas takes us inside movements and political parties that have built barriers and increasingly write one another off instead of seeking to win one another over. Meet activists, politicians, educators and more who work to change minds, bridge divisions, and fight for democracy-- hoping one day to point the way to healing, and changing our fracturing country. -- adapted from jacket
