About this product
Product Information
A groundbreaking look at why our interactions with others hold the key to success, from the New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential, Think Again, and Originals For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success: passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But in today's dramatically reconfigured world, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. In Give and Take , Adam Grant, an award-winning researcher and Wharton's highest-rated professor, examines the surprising forces that shape why some people rise to the top of the success ladder while others sink to the bottom. Praised by social scientists, business theorists, and corporate leaders, Give and Take opens up an approach to work, interactions, and productivity that is nothing short of revolutionary.

"With Give and Take , Adam Grant has marshaled compelling evidence for a revolutionary way of thinking about personal success in business and in life. Besides the fundamentally uplifting character of the case he makes, readers will be delighted by the truly engaging way he makes it. This is a must read." ~Robert Cialdini, bestselling author of Influence " Give and Take just might be the most important book of this young century. As insightful and entertaining as Malcolm Gladwell at his best, this book has profound implications for how we manage our careers, deal with our friends and relatives, raise our children, and design our institutions. This gem is a joy to read, and it shatters the myth that greed is the path to success. ...Adam Grant is my candidate for the most interesting young hot shot in the field--he just might be the next Chip Heath or Dan Ariely. He does wonderful and varied research, and especially, has a wonderful stream of research that shows people who are consistently altruistic… do much better in the long term." ~Robert Sutton, bestselling author of The No *sshole Rule and Good Boss, Bad Boss "Packed with cutting-edge research, concrete examples, and deep insight, Give and Take offers extraordinarily thought-provoking-and often surprising-conclusions about how our interactions with others drive our success and happiness. This important and compulsively-readable book deserves to be a huge success." ~Gretchen Rubin, bestselling author of The Happiness Project and Happier at Home " Give and Take is brimming with life-changing insights. As brilliant as it is wise, this is not just a book-it's a new and shining worldview. Adam Grant is one of the great social scientists of our time, and his extraordinary new book is sure to be a bestseller." ~Susan Cain, bestselling author of Quiet " Give and Take dispels commonly held beliefs that equate givers with weakness and takers with strength. Grant shows us the importance of nurturing and encouraging prosocial behaviors." ~Dan Ariely, bestselling author of Predictably Irrational " Give and Take cuts through the clutter of clichés in the marketplace and provides a refreshing new perspective on the art and science of success. Adam Grant has crafted a unique, 'must have' toolkit for accomplishing goals through collaboration and reciprocity." ~William P. Lauder, Executive Chairman, The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. "In this riveting and sparkling book, Adam Grant turns the conventional wisdom upside-down about what it takes to win and get ahead. With page-turning stories and compelling studies, Give and Take reveals the surprising forces behind success, and the steps we can take to enhance our own." ~Laszlo Bock, senior vice president of people operations at Google, "Adam Grant is--plain and simple--one of the finest social scientists of his generation. But if that weren't enough, he is also one of the most accessible. He is the rare scholar whose work combines academic rigor with real-world practicality--which is why I read everything he writes and why an ever-growing audience is benefiting from his insights." ~Daniel Pink, bestselling author of Drive and A Whole New Mind "Adam Grant, a rising star of positive psychology, seamlessly weaves together science and stories of business success and failure, convincing us that giving is in the long run the recipe for success in the corporate world. En route you will find yourself re-examining your own life. Read it yourself, then give copies to the people you care most about in this world." ~Martin Seligman, bestselling author of Learned Optimism and Flourish " Give and Take is a game changer. Reading Adam Grant's compelling book will change the way doctors doctor, managers manage, teachers teach, and bosses boss. It will create a society in which people do better by being better. Read the book and change the way you live and work." ~Barry Schwartz, bestselling author of The Paradox of Choice and Practical Wisdom "Adam Grant has written a landmark book that examines what makes some extraordinarily successful people so great. By introducing us to highly-impressive individuals, he proves that, contrary to popular belief, the best way to climb to the top of the ladder is to take others up there with you. Give and Take presents the road to success for the 21st century." ~Maria Eitel, founding CEO and President of the Nike Foundation " Give and Take is a real gift. Adam Grant delivers a triple treat: stories as good as a well-written novel, surprising insights drawn from rigorous science, and advice on using those insights to catapult ourselves and our organizations to success. I can't think of another book with more powerful implications for both business and life." ~Teresa Amabile, bestselling author of The Progress Principle "In one of the most engaging and insightful books I've read in years, Adam Grant makes a persuasive argument for a counterintuitive approach to success. Give and Take is an 'instant classic' that should be read by anyone who wants to be more productive-and happier-in the office or at home." ~Noah Goldstein, bestselling author of Yes! "Adam Grant is the first to define what has changed about relationships in a digital age and he backs it up with empirical evidence. In Give and Take , he brilliantly demonstrates that in our deeply interconnected world, the roots of sustainable success lie in creating success for those around you. It's one of those rare books that is both enlightening immensely practical. You'll want to read and revisit it every year." ~Paul Saffo, Managing Director of Foresight and member, World Economic Forum Council on Strategic Foresight " Give and Take is sensational, with fascinating insights on page after page. I learned much that I intend to incorporate into my life immediately. The lessons will not only make you a better person; they will make you more capable of doing good for many people, including yourself." ~Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, author of Jewish Literacy and A Code of Jewish Ethics

Item was better than described in my opinion and it did come in a bubble mailer. The package came in a timely manner, and the seller was pretty communicative by sending email after payment asking for confirmation of the address and stating when they will most likely send my item during the week. Overall, great seller, would come again if give the chance to. If you have a chance to do business with them, please do! And thank you goodwill_colorado_springs for my MLP DVD!
