Dr. William R. Miller is Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry at the University of New Mexico, with over forty years of experience in teaching empathic understanding. His many books include Lovingkindness, Quantum Change, Motivational Interviewing, and Portals: Two Lives Intertwined by Adoption.
"The quality of empathic listening that Carl Rogers brought to us
decades ago, that unlocks treasures of intimacy, trust, peace and
healing, is alive and well in Bill Miller's own unique voice, as he
extends the meanings of this vital relational element for today's
world. Readily integrated into our everyday lives and the larger
cultures of human conflict, my hope is that we choose to live out
the delicate yet strong principles of connection that Listening
Well offers us."
--Gay Leah Barfield, Co-Founder and Former Director, Carl Rogers
Institute for Peace, Center for Studies of the Person, La Jolla,
California
"If there ever was a time for Listening Well, it is now. In its
pages, we learn to use our ears to dissolve differences, open
hearts, and build bridges. Nothing more needs saying."
--Scott D. Miller, Director, International Center for Clinical
Excellence
"Listening Well is a super moon in the dark night sky: brilliant,
absorbing, and illuminating. Bill Miller, co-developer of the
revolutionary motivational interviewing, blends art and science in
teaching the quintessential skills of listening and in fostering
human connection."
--John C. Norcross, Professor of Psychology, University of
Scranton
"Listening Well is a terrific, hands-on book for individuals or
groups dedicated to caring relationships. Full of insight and
practical exercises to improve listening skills, I highly recommend
it to professionals and lay people alike."
--Debra Engquist, Retired Pastor
"Listening Well is about much more than listening. This short,
easy-to-read book provides a brief course in human relationships.
With many useful explanations, examples, and exercises, the author
demonstrates the what, why, and how of empathy in human
interaction. The book is eminently useful for those who want to or
need to improve their listening and relationship skills at work or
in personal settings."
--Howard Kirschenbaum, Former Chair, Counseling and Human
Development, University of Rochester
