Ratings and reviews

Easily one of the best reads you can pick. Very helpful for any person. I only took a star off for the various typos and missed punctuation throughout the book.

Very mind and eye opening.it shoes you that you aren't the only one who has problems going on and that you aren't the only one going through this thing we call life. We are all one, just gotta scratch each other's backs without expecting it back right away.

The book contains many incredibly useful tips, but the page count could've easily been cut down by half: Many of the points brought up, while useful, overlap one other, and Carnegie has a tendency to give way too many anecdotes.
