Chore to read!

“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.
