Life changing.
This book covers a wide range of topics such as how to motivate people, how to win them to your way of thinking, but also covers small and often overlooked things such as the importance of remembering someone's name

Best in my Knowledge.
I came into this book with some level of apprehension; the title sounds so manipulative that it is almost off putting. However it was so highly recommended that I knew I needed to try it, and boy was I glad I did.

Great helpful.
Everything in this book was good I enjoyed listening the book although sometimes dry at times you learn a lot. The principles that this book outlines are things that I see myself coming back too and relistening from time to time.

A bit too brief
It needs more elaboration and examples. The chapters in the book are also numbered differently to how they appear on the screen which is confusing. If you skip all the background ect the summary is probably 30 to 40 mins long. Good time save comapred to the full book.

Excellent narration, Calming voice
The stories made me smile, the lessons made me consider, and the structure made me delighted to continue. Buy this book if you're interested in understanding how to accomplish your goals. If you're more interested in being right, it may not be for you.

Reader
The reader doesn’t emphasize the correct words and it makes it a bit weird. It’s almost like a robot is reading it but not quite. Other than that it’s good.

Summary leaves something missing.
So the book was great and I thought I'd get this summary, as a helpful reminder of all the points to learn.
But this reading was unusual, it left something lacking, I found the narrator a little mechanical and my mind
wandering off. Also, different chapters have different narrators (or if its the same person, she has a different tempo on different lessons.. which make it seem out of place)
Also, the summary is not good at reinforcing WHY you should or should not do something.
There's probably a good summary for the book out there.. but this is not it.. keep looking

Good Story but need depth in conveying.
Good Story could've been told with a little more depth, seems like some robot and not human reading it though.

Mixed narration quality
Much of the reading lacks a smooth rhythm and there are a few editing mistakes and mispronounced words, but there are some random well-read chapters thrown in too (the difference in quality is dramatic). I can't complain too much based on the extremely low price. It did the job. I've read the full book before and just wanted a summary.
