Carnegie (How To Stop Worrying and Start Living, Audio Reviews, LJ 2\/15\/99) opens with fundamental techniques for dealing with people, such as refraining from criticism and expressing sincere appreciation. Making people like you by smiling, remembering names, and being a good listener are encouraged. Final sections describe approaches for persuading people to your way of thinking and how to change people without causing offense or resentment. These positive principles are stated succinctly and illustrated with pertinent, if occasionally outmoded, anecdotes. While critics have charged that Carnegie emphasized good manners and friendliness over proficiency, the author clearly states that his target audience is competent individuals who are less than successful because they lack people skills, a group that would be well served by his sensible guidance. Andrew MacMillan's confident, friendly narration is a worthy counterpart for Carnegie's advice, making this an appropriate selection for libraries that don't own the 1989 unabridged recording that includes the printed volume (LJ 4\/1\/89).--Linda Bredengerd, Hanley Lib., Univ. of Pittsburgh, Bradford, PA\\n\\n- Library Journal\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41854670307402,"sku":"5048v","price":10.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/5048v.jpg?v=1765600213","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/how-to-win-friends-and-influence-people-by-dale-carnegie-5048v","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
