Why you should read How to Win Friends and Influence People
In the book that gave birth to the self-help genre, Dale Carnegie spells out his plan for getting what you want from other people by changing the way you behave. Carnegie developed these principles by drawing from examples of persuasive people in history, like Abraham Lincoln, and from his own experiences. Since Carnegie wrote his book in 1935, many of his examples will of course seem dated, but his basic principles are timeless, eminently useable and presented in an easy-to-read and personal style. getAbstract recommends this classic to everyone – up to this date, no one has said it better than Carnegie.
