Summary

The New York Times bestseller, Win Every Argument is the ultimate audiobook guide to debate, persuasion and public speaking, written and read by award-winning British-American journalist Mehdi Hasan.

Arguments are everywhere – and especially given the fierce debates we’re all embroiled in today, everyone wants to win. In this riveting guide to the art of argument, Mehdi Hasan shows you how to communicate with confidence, rise above the tit for tats on social media, and triumph in a successful and productive debate in the real world.

Arguments help us solve problems, uncover new ideas we might not have considered, and nudge our disagreements toward mutual understanding. A good argument, made in good faith, has intrinsic value – and can also simply be fun.

As a journalist, anchor, and interviewer who has clashed with politicians, spy chiefs, and celebrities from across the world, Hasan reveals his tricks of the trade for the first time. Whether you are making a presentation at work or debating current political issues with a friend, Hasan will teach you how to sharpen your speaking skills to make the winning case.

Critic reviews

"A masterclass from one of the most formidable debaters and interviewers of our time." (Riz Ahmed)

"A tour de force! There is no better debater than Mehdi and this riveting read will help transform the most shy and retiring speaker into a charismatic polemicist. A masterclass." (Owen Jones)

"Mehdi Hasan relishes controversy and winning arguments. This is a combative and engaging ‘How To’ book for wannabe great performers in the studio and in public debate." (Jonathan Dimbleby)

Absolutely superb and mind blowing

I remember reading his stuff here and there in the Graun (where else) about 10 yrs ago but never thought much else. And then this book arrives (I was reading Johann Hari and this was mentioned) and man oh man. A tour de force.

Absolutely enjoyable, and you know what? It has literally made me stand a few inches taller as in more upright with my chin and head high. Boom

Fun, entertaining and useful

I didn't follow this book as a guide, although you can study the techniques he offers. Found it interesting and fun to listen to techniques of arguments and how Hassan has done it all these years. Rather impressive.

Very Educational, excellently narrated.

Thoroughly enjoyed the book. Wished it went on for longer. Possibly a 1 year course on debating summerised in a few hours.
