THESIS
I believe that the book is trying to convey the sense that difficult and combative personalities are all around us and there are ways to identify and handle them. You will run into difficult people of all walks of life, in many different places and since they cannot be avoided it is infinitely easier in learning how to deal with them. There are endless scenarios for encountering Difficult People and also scenarios where the Difficult Person is also your boss. The book offers up many strategies for coping with Difficult People and their many manifestations.
