I truly enjoyed this audio. I listened to it several times. Makes you think about the way you interact with others and what works and what doesn't. Not just for getting what you want but for also making the people you care about feel good and be more apt to listen to you. Sometimes I have learned it isn't what you say but how you say it. This would even make a good training audio for sales training. A good investment if you want to build a good audio collection on the study of people.

The content may be good, I can't really tell. The read is such a drone that I keep drifting off.
