Is "Verbal Judo" worth a read?

[Herknav]

I have the opportunity to read the latest edition for free. Is it a worthwhile CCW read?

Thanks,
Herk

It's kinda dry but there is good information there.

His first book, Mental Karate, gave me a headache.

I have half a dozen books in the queue, and I'd rather not waste my time on a stinker. I'll make time for it based on Pawncop's recommendation. Thanks!

I've never read it, but I do utilize it quite often at work. Many times a little verbal judo is a bunch easier than rolling around with someone.

I read it a few years back, and I thought it was worthwhile. Some of the exact techniques are a little stilted, but the ideas are useful.
