Books that changed your life.

none, but this malcolm x book has been really interesting, haven't read it in about a good week, keep putting it down...will start back tomorrow and hopefully finish it...Usually will sit and read a book all the way through...

after this I'm going to start on the miseducation of the negro.

Dale hung out with wealthy people, point blank. I don't remember if he was wealthy (rockafeller wealthy) himself, but all i know is that he would analyze, interview and probe gestures and mannerisms of the wealthy class and give some tips on how to become a better communicator (not by talking but by listening <- simple tips like this). The book is a real simple and classic read. It definitely helped with my social life and his tips are golden. Don't be shy to buy it cuz you could buy one for less than $5 on sites like half.com (i bought it there).

Also, listening to these guys on audio. In my 19 years of living, I swear the information that I have aquired from these pieces of literature is absolutely phenomonal and life changing. I am so thankful to have been able to read these books because honestly, this stuff works, and I use it on the daily, and I'm literally watching my life unfold according to the pieces of advice that these great people have put in these books.

I'm 19, i've been reading this stuff since I was 16, and my life has been better ever since. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND reading these books, along with a few others.

GREAT book. Author is a travel writer who one day realized that he didn't know anything about science, like how did the oceans get here and what not, and he decided to spend the next 2 years of his life writing a book geared towards the average man about science. he talks about everything in science and how it got discovered, like how did the original scientists make the discovery... very eye-opening, easy to read, he uses great metaphors, and its funny too (this guy is like Bill Simmons, lotta footnotes that are both relevant and hilarious).. so if i had to recommend one book i read to you guys, it would be this one...
