Muy buen escrito, con un vocabulario sencillo y una manera fácil de explicar las estrategias necesarias para abordar una buena conversación con otros, nos hace concientes de nuestros errores y también de los ajenos en cuestiones comunicativas.

[William Ringold · Rating 5 out of 5]

Its a fun harmless book that does in-fact explain humor. “My grandfather died peacefully in his
sleep. But the kids on his bus were screaming.” I mean, that's funny.

Great book! It discusses the mindset and common techniques of day-to-day humour in a very simple and funny manner. In fact, I think I did become more halarious and quick-witted, thank you, thank you.

Good, Healthy Humor

An interesting topic! I also thought “To Be Hilarious and Quick-Witted in Daily Conversation” is clearly a natural talent, and comedians are natural entertainers. Now I realize it is a faculty that can be developed. Piquing the attention, curiosity, and interest of the audience for a long duration is a special gift indeed. We know we all need to laugh to ease tension, which is physically and mentally healthy. The author, in my opinion, has described the topic in detail. I enjoyed this book.

No imaginaba que las técnicas de improvisación facilitarían la tarea de tener mejores conversaciones… solo resta practicar y obtener mis propios resultados.
