How to Win Friends and Influence People is a classic book by Dale Carnegie with a pretty self-explanatory title. I read this book recently, and was surprised to find that it epitomized a lot of the wisdom I had already picked up from a variety of other sources.

hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Vendeur : Crappy Old Books, Barry, Royaume-Uni
Hardback. Etat : Good. How to Win Friends and Influence People is one of those immortal self-help classics that has somehow survived nearly a century of changing fashions, management trends, corporate jargon and human disappointment while continuing to insist, with astonishing optimism, that the secret to success may simply involve listening to people properly and not behaving like a complete menace. Published here in a 1975 Worlds Books edition and now proudly recirculated by Crappy Old Books in Good condition, this copy arrives carrying decades of accumulated ambition. One imagines previous owners buying it during moments of personal reinvention: new jobs, sales careers, management promotions, nervous first interviews or perhaps after somebody gently suggested they were ?coming across a bit strongly.? Dale Carnegie?s masterpiece belongs to that fascinating category of books which everyone claims to know without necessarily having read properly. Its title alone entered the language long ago. Entire generations have absorbed fragments of Carnegie wisdom second-hand through business seminars, motivational speakers and managers who underline phrases aggressively before lending the book to colleagues with worrying intensity. And yet the genuinely funny thing is how reasonable much of it actually is. Beneath the grandly American title lies a surprisingly humane central thesis: people enjoy being appreciated, heard and treated with respect. Revolutionary material, clearly. Modern corporate culture continues spending billions rediscovering this insight through leadership retreats involving flipcharts and stale pastries. The title itself remains magnificently direct. How to Win Friends and Influence People does not pretend to be subtle literary fiction. It announces its intentions immediately like a man entering a networking event with over-polished shoes and impossible confidence. One half expects the subtitle to read: ?Please Shake Hands Firmly.? This 1975 Worlds Books edition almost certainly possesses all the tactile charm of a vintage motivational paperback. The pages have likely matured into that warm beige colour associated with office shelves, commuter briefcases and spare bedrooms where forgotten self-improvement plans quietly went to hibernate. Somewhere inside there may be pencil underlining beneath phrases such as ?Become genuinely interested in other people,? added by a reader determined to transform their life before getting distracted by biscuits and regional television. Good condition is genuinely impressive because books like this tend to lead unusually active lives. They are not passive shelf ornaments. They are carried to interviews, opened during lunch breaks and consulted in moments of low-confidence panic before important meetings. This copy may once have accompanied somebody through the management structures of British Leyland or sat beside an ashtray in a 1970s sales office where everybody wore ties wide enough to achieve low-altitude flight. There is also something deeply ironic about how modern the book still feels. Despite being written decades before social media, Carnegie understood fundamental truths about human behaviour that remain painfully relevant. People still crave attention, recognition and validation. They still enjoy talking about themselves. They still respond badly to humiliation. Entire digital platforms now operate by industrialising principles Carnegie explained with cheerful Midwestern sincerity before the Second World War. And perhaps that explains the book?s extraordinary longevity. Trends come and go. Entire business philosophies rise and collapse. Yet the basic challenge of navigating other human beings remains stubbornly unchanged. Carnegie simply packaged this eternal difficulty into a readable manual and accidentally created one of the most influential books ever written. A wonderfully earnest and unexpectedly perceptive survivor from the golden age of self-improvement, lovingly rescued by Crappy Old Books. Perfect for readers interested in psychology, business history, vintage paperbacks or the comforting possibility that personal influence may depend less on ruthless manipulation than on remembering people?s names and occasionally letting them finish speaking.
