How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale CarnegieMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This isn't a bad book, it's just dated. The principles are the same though--and what it boils down to is be nice to people, try to see things from their point of view, and try not to be contradictory (make them think it's their idea, flatter them, validate them). I am starting to think that at 49, life has already taught you most of what you find in self-help books, but perhaps it can help those just starting out (especially in the work force where people seem to be much more self-centered).
