In 1995 high-flying British journalist Toby Young left London for New York to become a contributing editor at Vanity Fair. Other Brits had taken Manhattan-Alistair Cooke then, Anna Wintour now-so why couldn't he? But things didn't quite go according to plan. Within the space of two years he was fired from Vanity Fair, banned from the most fashionable bar in the city, and couldn't get a date for love or money. Even the local AA group wanted nothing to do with him. How to Lose Friends and Alienate People is Toby Young's hilarious account of the five years he spent looking for love in all the wrong places and steadily working his way down the New York food chain, from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex toys. But it's more than "the longest self-deprecating joke since the complete works of Woody Allen" (Sunday Times); it's also a seditious attack on the culture of celebrity from inside the belly of the beast. And there's even a happy ending, as Toby Young marries-"for proper, noncynical reasons," as he puts it-the woman of his dreams. "Some people are lucky enough to stumble across the right path straight away; most of us only discover what the right one is by going down the wrong one first." "I'll rot in hell before I give that little bastard a quote for his book." -- Julie Burchill "A relentlessly brilliant book-a What Makes Sammy Run for the twenty-first century . . . the funniest, cleverest, most touching new book I've read for as long as I can remember." -- Julie Burchill, The Spectator

2014 Reprint of 1937 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People" is a bare-faced satire on the worldwide bestseller book, Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People." It is also a self-help book, but it tackles the issue from the other side. Irving always considered that Dale Carnegie was all wrong when he encouraged people to smile and be optimistic. His philosophy is totally different. For Irving, great life achievements can be made by those who live negatively. In this book you will find advice on how to lose friends and make people hate you so that you will be more productive and successful in your life. It is the only book that has ever been written to help people dissolve their human relationships in favor of having a better life! According to Irving, some of us are born with ability to make others peeved, but most of us aren't. Originally published in 1937, "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People" is a tongue-in-cheek primer by Irving Tressler on how to achieve more free time and peace by having few, if any, friends and acquaintances. "Some of us are born with ability to make others peeved, but most of us aren't. We flounder about making empty, vapid, pleasing remarks and before we know it we have another 'friend' and have invited him to lunch some day."

Men, jobs, children, personal crises, irreconcilable social gaps—these are just a few of the strange and confusing reasons which may cause a female friendship to end. No matter the cause, the breakup of a female friendship leaves a woman devastated and asking herself difficult questions. Was someone to blame? Is the friendship worth fighting for? How can I prevent this from ever happening again? Even more upsetting is that women suffering from broken friendships often have no one to confide in; while the loss of a romantic partner garners sympathy among peers, discussing the loss of a platonic friend is often impossible without making other friends jealous or uncomfortable. Written by journalist and psychologist Irene Levine, Ph.D., Best Friends Forever is an uplifting and heroically honest book for abandoned friends seeking solace. Dr. Levine draws from the personal testimonials of thousands of women to provide anecdotes and groundbreaking solutions to these complicated situations. Offering tools for personal assessment, case stories, and actionable advice for saving, ending, or re-evaluating a relationship, Levine shows that breakups are sometimes inevitable. Although the dissolution of female friendships can be difficult, Best Friends Forever teaches women to stop blaming themselves and probing the wounds, and that the sad experience of a broken friendship can make them stronger people, and more able to handle their relationships with wisdom.

After a sell-out first edition, we now have a new fully revised and updated second edition. Includes an all-new comprehensive chapter about the role of the CEO and the role of Directors, The Boss's Boss: Infuriating Directors. Employees who don't understand corporate politics are like defence personnel who don't understand combat. What's more liberating than financial freedom, and more reassuring than job-security? It's called career independence, whereby: what you don't have, you can obtain; what you don't know, you can learn; what you don't own, you can access; and what you don't want, you can discard. If you are an employee, this book will help you to take control of your career so that you can live a zestful and enchanting life. If you are the boss, this book will show you how to turn employees into superstars so that together, you'll know what to do when the rules run out. Jonar Nader says, 'If you choose to be a success, you'll be a success at whatever you choose, so long as you can follow your heart and watch your back.'

The Guyde is the most comprehensive men's dating and self-improvement book ever written, designed to be everything you need to transform into the most confident version of yourself. There are no lines or routines; instead you'll find exercises and information to improve your self-esteem, social skills, and other elements integral to social success. Everything in these pages is backed with scientific evidence, and when I say scientific evidence, I mean cited peer-reviewed literature, not pop evolutionary psychology or the "law of attraction." You won't be reading anecdotes telling you about my "successes" or opinions; you'll be learning the practical steps necessary for the specific changes you want to manifest in your life. The Guyde is divided into four sections: Part I - Psychology Part I focuses on the internal elements of social interaction. How do you overcome your toxic self-limiting beliefs that keep you from being authentic with people? How do you overcome your fears? How can you stay motivated to make your changes? You will learn clinically effective approaches to all of these and more. Part II - Social Skills For many men, the biggest barrier between themselves and social success is a lack of social skills and awareness. In Part II, you'll learn how to shore up this weakness. You will learn how to listen, banter, share stories, and assert yourself with others. You'll learn how to improve your body language and vocal tonality to project confidence and charisma. Part III - Physical Attractiveness Part III will teach you how to improve your physical features. The first two chapters detail the most clinically effective approaches to diet and exercise. We'll also discuss the basics of fashion and how to dress to impress. Master Part III, and when you go out, you will turn heads. Part IV - Dating The final portion of The Guyde deals with dating, in this version, in a heterosexual male context. You'll learn the best places to meet potential dates, how to flirt, and how to ask someone out. You'll learn how to plan brag-worthy romantic evenings and how to address problems like rude cancellations and "ghosting." You'll learn how to interact physically while being sensitive to your date's wishes, as well as how to perform better in bed. You'll learn why relationships fail and how to avoid the pitfalls most couples fall into, and you'll come to understand a bit about what it's like to date from a woman's perspective, including many of the cultural factors they face that most men don't understand. The Guyde is a labor of love. I wrote it to be everything I wish I'd known when I was younger, the sorts of things that turned my life around for the better. I hope it does the same for you.

The salesman is a philosopher and a military tactician. Sales is a war zone. Employing the strategies of Robert Greene, the Tao De Ching, and Julius Caesar, the salesman defeats his enemies. The salesman is a politician, the only difference, the salesman utilizes his skills for money instead of power. But in actuality the two professions are close cousins. P.T. Barnum the infamous international carnie of the 19th century went on to serve in the U.S. Senate. John F. Kennedy's Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara worked for Ford Motor Company. Ronald Reagan was a motivational speaker for General Electric factories in the 1950's. Salesmen are the utilizers of classroom theory. They turn the theoretical confines of literature into practical application. The 48 Laws of Power. The Gospel of Wealth. Marcus Aurelius' Meditations. Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung. The salesman reads it, and lives by it everyday. How to Lose Friends & Influence Nobody takes a romantic portrait of the Ray Kroc's and Jordan Belford's of our red, white and green society. An unabashedly shameless portrayal of the small time capitalists who fill our cubicles. The lifeblood of our commercial sector. The product pushers that keep the wheel turning. The Attila the Hun's and Vlad the Impaler's that fill our offices, only more ruthless. The Sophocles' and Plato's that blow up our phones with 1(800) numbers, only better orators. The Casanova's and Don Juan's that manipulate us into buying their products, only more charming. The Martin Luther King Jr.'s and Malcolm X's of the 9-to-5 lifestyle, only more charismatic. These are the Tony Robbins of telemarketing. The Galileo's and the Isaac Newton's of phone sales, only more rational. Only more analytical. If they weren't telemarketers, they'd be starting their own religions.
