Summary: Perfect!! (Cass.Per.5.JNoble)
Comment: This was my first time reading Dale Carnegie's influential book "How to Win Friends and Influence People," and I found it to be an amazing resource of information on how to deal with people. For a book that was written in 1936 it was truly a great resource then and still is now because no matter the century, technology changes but people and human nature remain the same.
This book explains ways to have people respond to you in very positive ways. And teaches you how to develop into a leader by explaining the most effective ways to deal with complaints, arguments, and people in general. This book teaches you and gives examples of how to use Dale Carnegie's messages through really short stories about really interesting and cool people.
I found this book both thought provoking and fun to read because it sends its message in easily understood terms. And each chapter ends with a principle thought to remember and elaborate on, through the use of real world examples.
In short, this book is a valuable resource for people struggling to make friends or trying to understand people. It is also a good tool for executives, teachers, or anyone in a leadership type role. This book will help you gain the success and respect you want.

Summary: In Essence: Yield and be sincere. Audio version is excellent
Comment: To my mind, sincerity and deference are at the core of Carnegie's advice, which I find to be quintessentially Taoist in character. Well-researched and occasionally even tear-jerking, this is one of the most engrossing books I've ever read. I highly recommend the audio version as well. The narrator is the best I've heard, with a tone that carries the intamcy of a fireside chat, and an inflection that communicates a emotional connection to the work.
Despite its esteem, I ignorantly passed over this book for years because the title gave me the impression that it described ways to manipulate people's feelings in order to further one's business/financial career. Carnegie takes care to periodically remind us that the practice only becomes a tool for manipulating others when people employ it insincerely. When his or her efforts are neither manufactured nor contrived, the successful Carnegie student displays grace, diplomacy, poise, and deference (wit sold separately).

Summary: A Personal Companion
Comment: I have a terrible secret- I LOVE THIS BOOK! This left-of-the-centre guy who reads Marx and Foucault adores Dale Carnegie.
Yes, yes. It seems to me that this book is a propaganda material written by and for the Republican Party (an American political party). Just count how many names affiliated to the party appears in this book to prove my case. But, then again, if you want to live like the Republicans, you better think like one!!!!
Advise such as 'criticism is dangerous, because it wounds a person's precious pride' is just helpful. Tao Te Ching for the modern age... and easier to grasp.
This is a book on how to deal with a person. And a valuable one on the subject. Keep it alongside your Bible.
