“How to Win Friends and Influence People” is a 1936 book written by Dale Carnegie. Over 30 million copies have been sold worldwide, making it one of the best-selling books of all time.
However, after reading It I found myself somewhat disappointed.
Dr. Carnegie is a specialist in sales-manship but it reflects poorly on his writing style. For instance he names his chapters bizarre titles such as “Do This and You'll be Welcome Anywhere” or “If you Don't do this You're Heading for Trouble”. this writing style carries on throughout the book.
I recommend “Just Listen” by Dr. Mark Goulston, as the book conveys the same ideas better.
Peaceful book, love it
I would say that the “approach life like a child” part isn't my cup of tea
I would've rated this book 5 stars but after reading the extra chapters in the expanded version I've come to notice the difference in the quality of writing with the original chapters and the newly added chapters which I noticed are dragged out and don't have the same level of well written-ness
This is the book that made me fall in love with reading
So it gets a 5 stars from me
