Communication requires a high level of sensitivity because every message is conveyed and needs to be decoded.Did you know that......communication is only 7% verbal....and 93% nonverbal?The non-verbal component is a combination of body language (55%) and tone of voice (38%).Just think about a casual dinner.

Unfortunately, decoding is not always that simple. Everyone conveys their message in a different way.

  • Deathworld by Harry Harrison, Science Fiction, Fantasy

    Harry Harrison

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, May 28, 2017)
    While on a gambling trip to the casino on the planet Cassylia, he is challenged by a man named Kerk Pyrrus (who turns out to be the ambassador from the planet Pyrrus) to turn a large amount of money into an immense sum by gambling at a government-run casino. Some planet in the galaxy must -- by definition -- be the toughest, meanest, nastiest of all. If Pyrrus wasn't it . . . it was an awfully good approximation! I started this story in an old issue of Astounding Stories that was kicking around - and was very happy to find the rest of it on Kindle. A quick read, really a novella. A solid page turner with lots of action, fun plot twists, and a satisfactory ending. If you like old Heinlein's I think you will like this.
