    Essential for LIFE!

    Any additional comments?

    I fantasize about a world where all high-schools have an added required class called Life.. with all the course time dedicated to the study and dissection of this masterpiece by Dale Carnegie.
    Carnegie majestically aligns the principles of life and business, showing clearly that strong moral values are not in opposition to optimal business practices. The examples and stories outlined here have stuck with me for years, and I have used them on numerous occasions to make points and sway an audience. Andrew MacMillan's voice accurately mirrors and portrays the essence of what is being conveyed.
    If you never have or never care to read business books, make an exception here!

    Excellent

    This book is a must if you on the same journey of self-cultivation as I am. It truly teaches you how to deal with people from all aspects of life. This is one of the few audio books where as soon as I was done listening to it I immediately wanted to listen to it go so not to forget anything. I Highly recommend it.

    This book teaches you what to say and not to say in every situation; how to act properly; how to be a leader; and how to get people to like you by being genuinely interested in their life. This book is great for someone who is in a leadership roll and wants to improve upon themselves.

    always the best guide to successful relationships

    timeless words of wisdom when dealing with people; groups, spouses, family, bosses, subordinates, leaders, followers, neighbors... everyone. The narrator is fantastic, and the book was written, as described in the intro, using many many stories, anecdotes, and fables... all lending themselves to spoken communication superbly.

    The only catch, and not a criticism of the book, is there is so much good advice, it's hard to commit to using it diligently. However, Dale explained in the intro that you may need more time than thought to digest and actually use the wisdom conveyed in the book.

    Ageless content.

    This book is a short way to understand thyself and how to reflect into others this understanding with the same respect you want.

    I have reded 3x in less than 1 year. The intention is to sink in the information until it become unconsciously until I do not have to consciously think to act upon. I have received complements on my way of delivering a message thru a clear communication and I am feeling more confident to do so.
