KNOWLEDGE IS POWER . . . BUT NOT EVERYONE IS WILLING TO SHARE IT!
It's an old saying, but still very true: knowledge is power...particularly in organizations and teams where your success depends in large part on career-savvy subtle communication skills and other people skills—particularly your ability to ferret out semi-hidden information, and to discern the real motives and deeper realities behind the situations and events going on around you.
It's easy enough to ask questions, and most of the time, most people will do their best to share the truth. But not always. Sometimes, if you play it straight and ask direct questions, you won't get straight answers, and you won't get to the truth. Instead, you'll get distortion, "spin" and other responses that are less than the whole truth.
But sometimes you may not want to ask a certain question, because that question may tip off the other person to what you're really after, and they may use that awareness to fudge, avoid, or distort.
WHAT IS "MENTAL PICKPOCKETING"?
How do you get information—and get to the truth—without flagging what you're really after? By employing mental pickpocketing—the art and science of asking questions without seeming to ask, or to ask what you're really after. Your skill in employing Mental Pickpocketing demonstrates aspects of what’s termed “emotional intelligence”.
BY READING THIS BOOK YOU WILL LEARN:
In this book, written by a lawyer and management consultant, you will learn. . .
15 "other" reasons to ask questions, apart from getting information;
10 basic tips on "information scavenging";
6 key factors in sequencing your questions and probes;
4 "nice "ways of mental pickpocketing;
7 "tricky" methods mental pickpockets use to subtly get truthful answers;
6 "even trickier" ways in which mental pickpockets operate;
Subtle ways of changing pace, changing directions, and even discouraging the too-talkative;Methods of controlling the discussion—and the flow of words—when the other person is off-the-point, or telling you more than you need to know;
A variety of ways of "listening" with your eyes.
An array of "soft skills" and subtle interpersonal skills.
YOU WILL ALSO LEARN TO PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST MENTAL PICKPOCKETS!
Sometimes you'll find yourself on the other side; sometimes it's YOU who's the target of a mental pickpocket! You'll find in this book a variety of "antidotes" to mental pickpocketing, including 14 ways of NOT answering questions and other subtle probes.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
