Title: Bad Title But Great Content
Review: This book has been recommended to me by numerous people and was even an optional reading for my social psychology class. However, the title always turned me away because it sounds so manipulative and disingenuous. That's just not the kind of person I want to be.After seeing more and more recommendations I finally decided to give it a try and am very glad I did. Despite the title, the book is actually the opposite of what I imagined it would be. It's basic principle is universal and timeless, change the way people react to you by changing the way you react to them. Do to others what you would like to be done to you. It's the golden rule that has been repeated countless times by many different cultures. Carnegie goes into the nuances of how to apply this rule and talks about the difference between genuine appreciation and flattery, etc.Don't let the title turn you away. This book really is a gem in how to treat others better and be treated better in return.
