A rather unfortunate title for an amazing book. You might think most of what it says is common sense, but in reality, ever since I read it, I've been far more cognizant of relationships with people & despite being a talkative extrovert, I have tried my best to shut the hell up and listen :)

I believe the title is even better now than when it was written in the 1930s; the fact that when most people hear it they think of Machiavellian back-stabbing is evidence how important its lessons are today.
