Ratings and reviews

It is wholly unsurprising that terrifying, much-mythologized cult leader Charles Manson loved Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People. According to Jeff Guinn’s Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson, Manson read the book and took the course based on it in prison, and became obsessed—particularly with Chapter Seven: “How to Get Co-Operation,” which as Guinn writes, “contained advice that Charlie adopted as the most vital tool in his manipulative arsenal"

There is something amiss in either the uploaded content or my download. The chapters are segmented in the middle of the chapter segments and it seems material is cut off at the end of the segments as well. I love the book and what it has to offer. This specific download isn't what you want to pay for.

This book was great all around in aspects of life, be it from marriage, to talking to strangers, to how to get your point across, how to deal with people in the customer service world, to just being nice. It opened my mind in that being rude and being mad will portray you in a negative light, and not as a hard worker. I used some of its methods and sure enough, coworkers noticed it right away by listening to others. I highly recommend this book.
