  <default_description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;i&gt;On Dialogue&lt;/i&gt; is the most comprehensive documentation to date of best-selling author David Bohm's dialogical world view. Bohm explores the purpose, methods and meanings of the multi-faceted process he referred to simply as &quot;dialogue&quot;, suggesting that dialogue offers the possibility of an entirely new order of communication and relationship with ourselves, our fellows, and the world around us.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Bohm's basic message is: if your views are correct, they do not need an aggressive defense; if they are incorrect they do not deserve it and realizing that is the beginning of dialogue. His book offers tools that facilitate a true exchange of ideas between people.&lt;/P&gt;</default_description>
