You are probably familiar with the work of Dale Carnegie. A large part of HN find his work to be overrated and obvious at best, while personally so far I found it enlightening and found that the world would be a better place if people actually followed its advice. What is your opinion on his work?

I've personally never read his work. I thought the titling alone so shallow as to not warrant a toe-dip, and the orientation toward success in business was just another factor in my shying away. Sorry!
