Amazon.com Review
This grandfather of all people-skills books was first published
in 1937. It was an overnight hit, eventually selling 15 million copies. How to Win Friends and Influence People
is just as useful today as it was when it was first published, because
Dale Carnegie had an understanding of human nature that will never be
outdated. Financial success, Carnegie believed, is due 15 percent to
professional knowledge and 85 percent to "the ability to express ideas,
to assume leadership, and to arouse enthusiasm among people." He teaches
these skills through underlying principles of dealing with people so
that they feel important and appreciated. He also emphasizes fundamental
techniques for handling people without making them feel manipulated.
Carnegie says you can make someone want to do what you want them to by
seeing the situation from the other person's point of view and "arousing
in the other person an eager want." You learn how to make people like
you, win people over to your way of thinking, and change people without
causing offense or arousing resentment. For instance, "let the other
person feel that the idea is his or hers," and "talk about your own
mistakes before criticizing the other person." Carnegie illustrates his
points with anecdotes of historical figures, leaders of the business
world, and everyday folks. --Joan Price
