How to win friends and influence people : updated for the next generation of leaders / Dale Carnegie.

Carnegie, Dale, 1888-1955 (author.). Carnegie, Donna Dale, (writer of preface,, editor.). Thomas, Lowell, 1892-1981 (writer of appendix.).

Summary:

This new edition of the most influential self-help book of the last century has been updated under the care of Dale's daughter, Donna, introducing changes that keep the book fresh for today's readers, with priceless material restored from the original 1936 text.

One of the best-known motivational guides in history, Carnegie's advice has remained relevant for generations because he addressed timeless questions on communicating and navigating professional and social situations. Why revise a classic? This new edition eliminates references to people or events that readers today would not recognize, weeded out extraneous materials, and emphasizes human relations skills even more necessary in our era of political strife and social upheaval. -- adapted from Preface.
