This book's point is basically that if you treat people with respect and consideration, they'll be much more likely to like you and to see your viewpoint. It goes on to both outline and detail exactly how do do this, providing many examples. As Mr. Carnegie says, practicing the guidelines spelled out in the book won't mean everyone will like you and agree with you, but they will vastly improve the chances that people will like you and agree with you.
I really liked this book because not only is it dead-on accurate when it comes to improving the rate of positive interaction with people, it's an interesting read. I expected to skim through it and glean off the main points, but I ended up reading it from cover to cover.

As Dale Carnegie writes early in this well-known book, 15% of one's financial success is due to professional knowledge and skill. The remaining 85% is due to personality and the ability to lead people. As a young professional in the early stage of my career, I picked up a copy of How to Win Friends & Influence People in order to hone my human relations.
The book, first published in the 1930s, is certainly dated in the anecdotes it relates about high-powered business executives and politicians. However, the advice is written in a conversational manner that is very easy to read and still relevant to these modern times.
The book distills its wisdom in short chapters focused around specific advice. As you progress through the book, many of the suggestions become recurring themes, reinforcing their emphasis. Much of the advice is simple common sense and common courtesy, but reminders are welcome, as it is all too easy to take these skills for granted.
After reading the book, I recommend printing out a list of the main headings, to be reviewed on a daily or weekly basis. I also suggeste occasionally re-reading the chapters that pertain to specific weaknesses you may exhibit, so you can have an increased awareness of them as you seek to improve.
Human relations, in both professional and personal matters, is an essential skill. The is one of the premier books on the subject, and rightfully so.

The book I ordered is not what was delivered. I ordered "How to win friends and influence people". The book I received was "How to win friends and influence people for teenage girls." This not what was shown when I ordered online nor in this review. What a disappointment.

I read this book after it was suggested to me by a peer and thought it was great. While the book was written a very long time ago, and some of the examples are dated they are still very relevant. I would recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their communication skills.
