"The only book you need to lead you to success"--Cover

One of the best-known motivational guides in history, Carnegie's advice has remained relevant for generations because he addressed timeless questions on communicating and navigating professional and social situations. Why revise a classic? This new edition eliminates references to people or events that readers today would not recognize, weeded out extraneous materials, and emphasizes human relations skills even more necessary in our era of political strife and social upheaval. -- adapted from Preface
