If anyone has read this, and could provide a Marxist/materialist perspective, or a link to a known one, I would greatly appreciate it.
Edit: Wow! I am glad I asked before wasting any time at all reading any part of this. Thank you.
I am asking, because I was recommended to read Dale Carnegie’s 1936 book How to Win Friends and Influence People, by my current boss, and I had read that when I was 19 at the recommendation of my Evangelical father. I mostly disliked it then, finding it trite and vague. So, I was trying to find an alternative, and tried to look up an alternative that I could read instead. I saw that this 48 Laws book was highly read by people incarcerated in US prisons, and the book had been banned by many prisons. I was hoping it had some sort of subversive anti-authoritarian messaging that could fly under my boss’s radar.
