Dates and times
The first visit to Aye Write from the outspoken
LBC presenter and author.
James O'Brien has built well over a million
loyal listeners to his radio show by dissecting the opinions of callers live on
air, every day. But winning the argument doesn't necessarily mean you're right.
In this deeply personal book, James turns the
mirror on himself to reveal what he has changed his mind about and why, and
explores how examining and changing our own views is our new civic duty in a
world of outrage, disagreement and echo chambers. He writes candidly about the
stiff upper lip attitudes and toxic masculinity that coloured his childhood,
and the therapy and personal growth that have led him question his assumptions
and explore new perspectives. Laying open his personal views on everything from
racial prejudice to emotional vulnerability, from fat-shaming to tattoos, he
then delves into the real reasons -- often irrational or unconscious -- he
holds them.
Unflinchingly honest, revealing and funny, How
Not to Be Wrong is a tonic for a world more divided than ever and a
personal manifesto for a better way of thinking and living.
