Yellow - this book is like a coal mine where, by fortitude, you strike on gold once in a while. Confused? Allow me to explain.

This book was written a long long time back when the genre of self-help books didn't exist, there was barely any researched material on human relationships and even modern psychology was in its nascent stages. At that time Dale identified a need and put together an excellent book.

The only problem is that the 'principles' are observation driven wisdom, not scientifically validated facts. Some of the principles are very true - pure gold - clear must do - and, some of them are also pretty much common sense now. Others, not so - coal, that too poor quality.

Generally, the book will teach you how to be a 'sweet-mouthed' devil, like a lot of salesmen, unfortunately, aspire to be. Others may end up being misguided by what's inside. So, your call!
