Since its publication in 2007, Yes! has shown how small changes can make a big difference to everyone's powers of persuasion - both at work and at home. Every day, we face the challenge of persuading others to do what we want. But what makes people say 'yes' to our requests? Based on decades of research into the psychology of persuasion, this book reveals many remarkable insights that will help you be more persuasive both at work and at home. Co-written by the world's most quoted expert on influence, Professor Robert Cialdini, Yes! contains dozens of tips that you wouldn't want to miss out on - all of them scientifically proven to boost your powers of persuasion. This special tenth Anniversary edition features ten new chapters of updated research and fresh secrets of persuasion. You will find out how to stop your listeners getting bored, what you can do on your commute to increase your influence, and why being second place is worse than being third. Whether you want someone to promote you, take their medicine, reduce their carbon footprint or even give you their vote, Yes! shows how small changes in your approach can have a dramatic effect on your success.

Guy Kawasaki, author
The Art of the Start
Are there any nice little books I could buy as a present that wouldn't insult the recipient's intelligence? Yes. Or rather Yes!. It will help you understand why you're buying Christmas presents when you don't want to and when the people you're buying them for don't want you to either.
Stuart Jeffries
Guardian
If a CEO or head of state was limited to a single advisor my nomination would be Bob Cialdini, the world's most practical social psychologist and master of influence . In this book Cialdini teams up with a gifted young scholar and a seasoned consultant to produce a book filled with wisdom. Read it and the next time someone asks you to sell snow to the Eskimos or solve global warming you will say sure, but do you have anything hard I can do?
