Summary: A good book for what it is...
Comment: Lots of people love this book. I learned a LOT from it. I know what it takes to win friends and influence people. My moral dilemma comes when practicing what the book preaches. Read this book and then read "The Fountainhead" by Ayn Rand, and maybe you'll realize what I did.

Summary: Vital information for a self-centered society
Comment: I'm halfway through this book and am already inclined to give it 5 stars. I tend to do that with products that offer me valuable insight and information that enables me to run my small business better. The concepts in the book are very simple and straightforward and at times you may slap your forward and say; "well duh!" But it's often the most simplistic things that we as human beings overlook and stubbornly take for granted, such as remembering other people's names and trivial information about them.
If the people who leave poor reviews for this book actually got nothing out of reading it, then why did they pick it up in the first place, did the title not give it away? I would have to say that although I found some of the advice in the book to be basic, if you apply it consistently, then you will have success working with other people. Like everything else, practice makes perfect. It also makes you feel good to make other people feel good- at work, the grocery store and even at home.
We live in a self-centered society where it's all about ME-ME-ME, and the old fashioned viewpoint explained in the book has become obsolete in today's society. I'm not sure it's fair to give this book less than 3 STARS unless your book had pages ripped out, or you just wanted to be sarcastic and negative for no apparent reason. This book is for those who may already know what it is to have good values and high ethical standards, but just need a little reminder from time to time...we all do.

Summary: Great book!
Comment: We are currently using this book as a learning experience to deal with our clientele better. It's been really helpful in stressful situations, especially when we have a client who is not willing to work with us in difficult situations.
Customer Rating:
Summary: One of the best books ever written.
Comment: How to Win Friends and Influence People is an American classic that is still as relevant today as when first published decades ago. Dale Carnegie presents a basic approach to dealing with people that really works. Practical advice for achieving practical results. There is nothing superficial about what this book has to offer. I have begun using these methods in my own practice and have found the results astounding. The insights Mr. Carnegie offers may prove to be the best lifetime gift anyone can receive. My own twenty-something children will find this book under the tree this Christmas.

Summary: Original Copy?
Comment: One problem with Kindle and ebooks is that so many unqualified people can create them. This Kindle edition is full of typos. This book is in the public domain so it has been worked over many times. We need to know the source that was used to copy the work. It is obviously different from other versions. Is this a copy of the original? Or updated version? And how much was added or changed by the copier?
It's like trying to follow a map that someone has edited.
