How to Win Friends & Influence People (Miniature Edition)-(RP Minis) Hardcover – Abridged, April 4, 2017

It's totally my fault when I ordered this book, I had no idea it was the pocket version. Imagine the shock of thinking I'm getting a full size book and I pull it out and see this thing that the size of a Post-It note. Started hysterically laughing but decided to keep it because it was so funny.The other day I finally opened it up and skimped through it. It's a fantastic condensed version of the book. Does a great job of summarizing all of the research that Carnegie put into it.I would recommend it to anyone that has already read the book and would like something to look at periodically and remind themselves about what's most important.

I hated the book. The book was 3.5 inches by 2.75 inches. The book is a great read, but I thought that I was buying a regular sized book for a great price. I did not notice the size dimensions for the book when I ordered it, otherwise, I would have passed on the book.John

Before you buy, it says 'abridged' under the title... But as Dale Carnegie states, I'll let everyone who left a bad review save face🤣When this arrived in the mail I was really surprised by the size because I thought it was a full sized book.I purchased this as a gift for my husband who introduced this fantastic book to me when we first met, and it has changed my life SO MUCH! This mini book is "fun size"!There are times when people don't want to sit and read through a whole book or simply don't have the attention span or time to do so. I find that mini books can be the best way to educate and help those who need a little tidbit of insightful or helpful advice (on 'How to win friends and Influence People'). You can keep them on your desk, in your pocket, in you purse, in your car. I've bought these multiple times and passed them on to friends and acquaintances. The result? Genuinely happy people who are open to learning about others. Good things come in small packages:) Share the knowledge!!

I ordered the book that was titled (as from my invoice and from other reviewers here)"How to Win Friends & Influence People: The Only Book You Need to Lead You to Success"I bought this as a groomsmen gift, and feel very misled. NO mention of it being a tiny version, smaller than one's palm. I want my money back; this is absurd. I quite literally had my jaw drop to the floor as I opened the package (that made it seem like a full book - big package, small book inside) and found this atrocity within.This accurately describes my feelings: "There was no mention of the book being the miniature version unless you carefully read the descriptions. They have since changed the name of the item to include the miniature description but I felt like I was purposely deceived. This was not included in the cover of the book, the photo of the book, or the item name when I bought the book. The book is just bullet point highlights of the original book and it is not good for anything but a novelty item."

I’m obsessed with this book! When I was temporarily driving, I came across a rider who recommended this book along with his friends providing feedback! Read this book if you don’t read any other book! I use the advice provided and it works like a charm! The mini- book is great for traveling reasons/ being on trains. I even read it a few times and I never read books more than once! Great book! It’s like no other book!

Make sure you know the size of the book you are ordering. Lmao!!! The book fit in the palm of my hand. All for corners of the book. Don’t get me wrong. I can still read it and it’s actually cute. So small, I couldn’t find it to take a picture. 🤣

This book may well be a great read. HOWEVER......the size of the book is about 2.5" X 3.0" The thing looks like something that you'd see in a doll house. My wife likes the look of it and keeps on the mantle. I think as a joke, because the print is very hard to read. I gave four stars because the size of the book NEEEDS to be made MUCH CLEARER! Hope this helps.Marion.

Be sure to read the description.... I didn't and was quite shocked at the size. But it IS listed as a mini, I had just intended to order the full size. That being said, it's adorable and I'm keeping it.
