it is 2018 as of right now and this book don't seem to reach the 21st century. I'm sure the book is classic and it has its own way to view it's content, and yet i think it needs more than just a smile to solve many problems as of right now. We're in the 21st century and we as humans have evolved a lot since then and I think we need to get into debt to understand completely how people operate and this book, I would say outdated. Feel free to read it, I'm not saying I didn't learn anything from it. I learned a lot from this book. Though, I believe only 20-30% of the stuff I read are useful. 70% of it are outdated. If you're curious, just read it. You may like it. =)

I just finished reading the book a few minutes ago. I think that the book provides the reader with a lot of useful information. The book was recommended to me by my mentor at Kent State University. She told me that she remembers that her father had the book. When her son graduated from college and was moving away she gave him a copy. Now somehow the book has fallen into her hands and she just began reading it when she recommended it to me. The books original copyright date was 1936 and for some reason it just keeps re-appearing. I began talking to some family members and both my grandma and one of my uncles have the book. My uncle was very shy and the book helped him to break out of his shell. I hope the book will work wonders for me also since I have the same problem. It will take time however. I had to read the book for a goal that I was setting so I had to read it pretty quickly. I highlighted many key principles throughout it. My plan is to go back and re-read the book at my own pace and try to master some of the principles. I think it is a book that everyone should read no matter your major/occupation. It really gets you to start thinking about others first. You may even find that you already do some of the principles or have started to do them because you do get a better reaction prior to reading the book. Its a book that is hard to put down or get bored with. I am now interested in reading the authors other books and finding out if they still offer seminars since he is now deceased. A lot of the book is real life people talking about their own obstacles when dealing with people and what they did to make the situation the best they possibly could for both parties involved. Some of the people have been long deceased while others are more recent to the authors time period. I do not have any negative comments about this book other than I wish there was no ending but we all know that nothing lasts forever. I think this book makes a good gift especially for avid readers. Everyone can relate to the ideas in the book. I highly enjoyed it and will continue to re-read it in order to master the principles better. I hope that you will enjoy the book also.Read full review
I think I've always known that it was important to connect with others, it just seemed like something I would get to "someday". The insights and practical application that makes it something you do all the time is awesome. Plans are nice, but most of them never get fulfilled. With the knowledge I gained from this read, I don't have to make it something I plan because it's already something I do everyday. 5 stars from me, and I'm sure I will read it again and again.
