Title: This Book Can Help Almost Anyone
Review: I have always been taught to express my opinions, speak my mind and stand up for what I think is right. However, there is a right way and a wrong way to do things and the wrong way won't really get you very far. This book outlines what should be obvious to intelligent people but for the most part is not. Mainly this is how to modify your behavior in such a way as to breed "good will" from others - whether in the short term to get them to see your point of view and agree with you, or the long term and make friends and allies out of them. The advice is simple and makes sense. Although written in a bit of an outdated style, the author fills the text with examples of how the strategies could work. I did find it a bit too rosy and simplistic sometimes, but the basic lessons ring true. I have already instituted some of the advise and of course it works. I would give this to a kid who was having trouble getting along with the other kids.
