Constructive Criticism: A Handbook Speaking & Listening More Effectively in Personal Relations, Groups, & Political Activities By Vicki Legion (Gracie Lyons), 1976

The result is an extremely useful manual for people who work together for positive social change. Putting Gracie Lyon’s suggestions into practice will increase the power of people’s work as well as their personal sense of well being and satisfaction.
