Too Basic

After the intro, this sounds like someone reading from the script of a play. Apparently the book is a dialog between John and someone else, and the narrator simply reads, "John: Blah, blah... Les: Blah, blah..." instead of orienting the listener by saying, "John said, 'Blah, blah. Les said, 'Blah, blah." I know they're supposed to read directly from the text, but the single reader (who has a very bland style) makes it difficult to follow. And then there's the (shall we say) substance, which isn't. Really... "Giving complements is a great way to win with people!" Does anyone with any common sense not know this already? Maybe the unabridged version gives better (any) actual information we can use, but this is NOT worth the time.

Good, but obvious to most of us that have been in sales for a career. However, it's always effective to hear these things again and again to refresh your memory. I highly recommend this book for those looking to "go back to basics."
