The Man Who Gave Away His Lottery Win
A conversation with a remarkable man about the way we communicate
This book is about a chance encounter with a man who goes around the streets of London surprising homeless people with unexpected large gifts of cash and a a simple means of reconnecting with the world around them. It leads to an extended conversation in which the benefactor, Norman Sinclair, reveals that he has given away most of his big win on the Lottery, in support of his mission: to bring about a change in the way we communicate with one another, and how that can be achieved.
The conversation explains the essential Three Truths of Communication, dictums that determine the effectiveness of what we say. The other person in the dialogue could be you. An easy read, it will appeal to anyone who enjoys a well-written book. However, although the setting and characters are fictitious, its ideas on verbal communication could change the way you think and speak.
