I just picked up How to Win Friends and Influence People and I want to hear opinions!

Well, this definitely makes my list of "dumbest things I've read on LitNet."

I just started this book so I'm not far enough in to form a final opinon yet, but considering that this book has been around for quite some time, I am wondering if the LNF community thinks that it lives up to the "hype."

I'd like to hear personal opinons, success stories, criticism, or anything else that you would like to add.

I am reading the book for pleasure, but opinons from an academic viewpoint are definitely welcome.

Thanks Everyone!

It does live up to the hype but it also turns you into a sleazebag. The value comes after you've learned to pull away from it.
