Good advice and great insight. ( )

Easy read. Read most of it while I waited around for my family (late again!) to show up at my house.

Has a Christian bent which grows stronger as the book goes on. Sensing some discomfort with the subject matter, it looked like the editor pushed the email / texting etiquette onto the author.

It's a sensible book and worth reading to revisit the ideas of how words influence our world. ( )
