I’m so sorry but I haven’t been able to think of any specific books, although the first case it seems like your problem could be a matter of the Availability Heuristic—your teacher answered a different question to the one you asked because quite simply it was easier for them to recall the knowledge about the evolution of the system than the relative stability of GTP to ATP.
I’m not sure if there is anything in Kahneman’s Thinking Fast, Slow which might offer your practical techniques for priming listeners the right way. If anything you might be better served by the books of Robert Cialdini or even literature on sales—my thinking here is sales people often think about the structure (or in Aristotelian terms the Kairos) that they present different options which in effect ‘primes’ the customer to different Semantic and Mental frameworks.
Sorry that I can’t point to any specific books. I could guess on some specific techniques that I think might aid your communication but I’ve been wracking my brain and can’t think of any books that I know hit the mark.
