This book has great wisdom in it. I wish though, that the publishers or whoever is responsible for such a decision would consider revising the title.
I wonder how many potential readers were put off by the book's title, thinking "I have plenty of friends, I'm not a loser!". A better title in this day and age would be, "How to Win" by Dale Carnegie.
Also, I'd love to be able to read the 'lost chapter' that wasn't included in the book. If I recall correctly it was about how one should regard toxic people. If anybody has ever uncovered that chapter, I'd love to get the chance to read it.
