最能激励你走向成功的七本书(双语)

How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie (1936)
《人性的弱点:如何赢得朋友并影响他人》(How to Win Friends and Influence People),作者戴尔•卡耐基(1936年)

Carnegie’s classic self-help book counts people as diverse as oracular investor Warren Buffet and murder-mastermind Charles Manson among its acolytes. The book, which comprises a recipe for getting ahead, has sold more than 15 million copies since it was first published. Transcribed with help from a stenographer (at the suggestion of a Simon & Schuster exec who heard Carnegie speak), this likeability manual spawned from a popular lecture course taught by Carnegie. Here’s a nugget of Carnegie’s counsel: “You can't win an argument. You can't because if you lose it, you lose it; and if you win it, you lose it.”
这是卡耐基经典的自我帮助类著作,股神沃伦•巴菲特和杀人魔王查尔斯•曼森都是本书的信徒。书中包含一系列取得成功的秘诀,自首次出版以来已卖出超过1,500万本。这本人际关系手册的出版得益于一名速记员的帮助(根据一位听过卡耐基演讲的西蒙与舒斯特出版公司高管的建议),内容取自卡耐基颇受欢迎的演讲课程内容。卡耐基有一句名言:“你不可能赢得争论。因为如果你输了,你当然也就输了;如果你赢了,可你还是输了。”
