The sheer utility of this book is staggering. Written in a different age, where pithy observations couldn't be churned out to make a quick profit, this book is clearly the distillation of actual deep knowledge, rather than the musings of the garden-variety guru.

I’ve read it twice and I’ll read it again for sure.
I would recommend this book to literally everyone, an amazing insight on a completely different way of life and thinking that will improve your personal and professional relationships drastically.
Five stars, there’s no better self-improvement book than this.

This book is really tailored towards professional environments which is slightly misleading based off my expectations from the title. I learnt a lot about professional communication and persuasion but the content on friends and relationships is not very applicable/relevant

Good book, I found it a little difficult to read all the examples he gives but it was worth being patient and reading through. I’m going to be going through and revising the important things.

Lições valiosas
Reviewed in Brazil on 2 October 2023Verified Purchase
Eu tive preconceito com esse livro pelo título "como fazer amigos..." e achava que teria um monte de baboseira aqui até ver trás pessoas recomendando-o. Então resolvi dar uma chance a ele e me arrependo de não ter lido este livro antes. Ele está recheado de lições, ensinamentos e princípios extremamente valiosos para qualquer pessoa, não somente executivos ou líderes. É uma girada de chave e uma mudança de mensalidade impressionante. Já comecei a aplicar alguns princípios e consegui colher resultados instantâneos. É um livro que recomendo ler e reler com frequência até internalizar os ensinamentos

BEWARE: "Updated For The Next Generation of Leaders" 2022 Edition!!!

"How To Win Friends and Influence People" was the first personal development book I ever read. Being a depressed, lonely, 12 year old child I came across this book by accident at my local library. I was searching the computer's library catalog: "how to get friends", and this was the book that came up. Little did I know this book was going to become an essential for me in developing my social skills.
At first glance, you may read the principles taught in this book and go: "this is just common sense". But you may also have heard the quote "common sense isn't common". How many of us actively make an effort to genuinely smile and be empathetic towards others? How may of us jump to criticizing others without considering the other person's point of view? How many of us condemn others without remembering it won't make the other person change their mind?
I've read this book so many times I've lost count! It really changed my life, and I was so excited to see it be re-released for a new generation!
That said, the book edition of my youth was from the 1990's. How does this 2022 "Updated for the Next Generation of Leaders" edition hold up? I compared the 2 side-by-side.
PROS:
📌 Grammar revisions make the book easier to read. Examples include removal of filler words, word substitutions, and rewriting story examples. The changes are minor, so most of the time they are not very noticeable.
📌 A few new story examples have been added, featuring female figures like Evangeline Booth and Alice Foote MacDougall.
📌 A new concluding section: "Apply the Dale Carnegie Principles After the Book"
CONS:
📌 Lots of book edits come off less as necessary and more as attempts to be politically correct, to remove anything that could be seen as problematic. Examples include substituting words ("they" for "him", "not be able to walk" for "cripple", "house staff" for "servants") and stories that were needlessly removed (which leads to my next point).
📌 SO MANY story examples have been removed; no joke, I counted over 35! So many vivid examples that made the book so memorable for me as a kid, PC or not, are gone! I don't care if the story examples used Confederate general Robert E. Lee; they still illustrated the principles.
📌 Some edits just don't make sense at all. For example, they renamed Part 3, Chapter 5 from "The Secret of Socrates" to the principle "Get the Other Person Saying 'Yes, Yes' Immediately". No other chapter was renamed like this, and the Socrates example is still in the chapter.
As for the audiobook, the narrator gives a great presentation with a good range. But will his voice ever match the baritone of the original Andrew MacMillan? Unfortunately no.
In sum, for those who are new to reading this book or were born past the 2000's, I'd say this 2022 edition is a nice introduction, albeit a very sanitized one. There's a longer and better version out there. But if you're already a fan of the 90's publication and could care less about political correctness, there's not much new here to justify a second purchase. In fact, there's much less!
Sadly, this isn't the only book lately that's getting the Orwellian treatment. Other authors whose books have been altered lately for offensive content include Roald Dahl, Ian Fleming, Agatha Christie, and R.L. Stine (not to mention he's still alive and did not approve the changes). Simply put, it's really getting out of hand!
Consider me an old fashioned 30 year old Millennial, but I'll be sticking with my original copy.
