Recommendation
As you read Roger Dawson’s now-classic book, you’ll find yourself nodding your head saying, "Those guys used that gambit against me last week." And then you will say, "Never again!" This book is a rarity: A "Secrets of" book that actually provides you with useful tactics that you can employ in daily life and business. In fact, the knowledge you gain from this book will come in just as handy in everyday situations, like buying a car or setting your kid’s allowance, as it will when your business’ survival is at stake. While the secrets themselves can be reduced to common-sense approaches, many are intuitively brilliant, like the advice to flinch when you hear the other side’s first offer. getAbstract recommends Dawson’s insights to all readers, because everyone can benefit from negotiating a better deal.
