Nonviolent Communication, Marshall Rosenberg

I run some seminars/workshops on topics like self-improvement, providing useful feedback, effective communication, and other topics that relate to building an epistemically-healthy community. At the end, I like to recommend some books to people for further reading. Currently I'm recommending some combination of The Scout Mindset, Thinking in Bets, Thinking Fast and Slow, and The Elephant in the Brain, depending on the exact topic that we were discussing. I'd like to expand this list, particularly to books that focus less on cognitive biases and more on other areas. These are for a general audience, so they need to not rely on much prior knowledge. If there are too many books suggested for me to read them all, I'll pick 5-10 of them that seem most promising. I don't have all that much time for reading nowadays, so reading them all will take a while. Once I've read all the ones I plan to read, any that I decided to start recommending at my seminars are the ones that will win this market.
