Publication Date: 2003-08-01
Features: This is the 21st Century Special Revised Edition of How to Win Friends and Influence People, the only authorized original Chinese edition! Since its publication in 1937, How to Win Friends and Influence People has become one of the most enduring bestsellers in publishing history, beloved by readers worldwide. It is the second best-selling book in publishing history after the Bible, translated into 28 languages, with global sales exceeding 15 million copies. In 1981, Dale Carnegie's wife revised the book, removing outdated examples and adding new content. This revised edition is now renamed Winning Influence: The Art of Interpersonal Relations and is presented as a fresh inspiration for readers in the 21st century. Dale Carnegie once said that earning $1 million is far easier than expressing a single proverb in English. And his Winning Influence: The Art of Interpersonal Relations has been widely regarded by numerous publications as a prophecy. From political cartoons to novels, his words have been constantly quoted, interpreted, and even imitated. The book has been almost translated into every known written language, creating a record-breaking publishing achievement in global history. It deeply resonates with readers, fulfilling their needs in understanding human nature, and thus became a popular read during the later stages of the economic depression. Its sales records remained high well into the 1980s, lasting for nearly half a century. Generations have revisited the process of discovering, appreciating, and seeking out books related to it. Many of the distinguished figures mentioned in the book were very famous when it was published, but are now unfamiliar to readers. Naturally, revisiting the cases and proverbs in today's societal context may seem outdated and peculiar, as if reading a novel from the Victorian era. At the same time, many of the important messages in the book and their impact have also been somewhat diluted.
