Book Description
Since its initial publication, How to Win Friends and Influence People
has sold a total of 15 million copies. The book continues to sell
briskly today, but Carnegie never anticipated the ways in which the
digital age would provide new tools and challenges for winning friends
and influencing people. The advent of social networking sites, the
dominance of email, and the ways in which the Internet has supplanted
face-to-face interactions have made Carnegie's precepts all the more
immediate and vital. Brent Cole, working in tandem with Dale Carnegie
& Associates, Inc., has reimagined the original book for the digital
age, updating and reframing Carnegie's insights about communication,
self expression, and leadership.
Book Review by Vanga Srikanth
Every young guy should read this book, if you ever wanted to know how to
get the whole company to like you without brown nosing then the answer
is in this book, Want to win every argument by not having it and getting
people to follow you? - get this book.
What to feel more confident in life? Ever wish you could charm your way through life? Well this book will show you how and much more.
The principles are not earth shattering in themselves and in some ways looking back in hind sight much should have been obvious, but we live in a world where TV and the media feeds us constant lies there are people who react to the world the same way they see people reacting on TV and cannot understand why the world rejects them, its sad but true we do not seem to use all our technology to communicate good well balanced behavior - but this book does a lot to correct this.
For me it is a real game changer!

For me it is a real game changer!
know the books of dale Carnegie since decades.
in fact his most well known books "how to win friends" and
"stoop worrying and start living" made a real difference
to my life and my career!
as i have read this new adaption i was fascinated by its
value! in my opinion some of the original principles
are made even clearer and more precise!
e.g. the original principle "arouse an eager want" was adapted
to "connect to core motives" which makes it even more understandable
and usable for the reader! it makes it even more applicable
for sales-people or everybody wanting to convince others!
i discovered an approach to dale Carnegie principles from
an attitude- and value-based sight! it is often stated how important
compassion and altruism is! we know from positive psychology
and other fields how important compassion is! the adapted principles
make it easy to apply this compassionate attitude everyday!
by reading this book (in fact the kindle-edition
which has been released in great britain end of September)
i was reminded of the principles, saw them
clearer and applied them immediately!
i have found my relationships growing stronger
and the atmosphere at work becoming more fun!(in no time!)
read this book and REALLY apply its principles and you will
be stunned by the effects on your relationships and work-life!
