Editorial Reviews

Product Description

A few well-chosen words can elicit smiles, inspire happiness, transform moods, and turn a bad day into a good one. Philosopher William James once said, “The deepest principle in human nature is the desire to be appreciated.” This is a fun, fabulous, reader-friendly book all about compliments—the history of compliments, how to use them, best-loved compliments, and how to take them.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing to new., February 7, 2010

By	Kevin T. Martin "Kevin Martin" (Colorado USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

I was hoping for something new and inspiring, or a great list of compliments that can be used in the office, for your spouse, friends, etc. or how to come up with unique and meaningful compliments in various situations.

Perhaps I set too high an expectation or a book like that cannot be written, but I found most of the information in this book very straightforward.

Nice style of the book though - creative designs on the inside and very open author.
