Story
Human beings are primates, and primates are political animals. Our brains, therefore, are designed not just to hunt and gather but also to help us get ahead socially, often via deception and self-deception. But while we may be self-interested schemers, we benefit by pretending otherwise. The less we know about our own ugly motives, the better - and thus, we don't like to talk, or even think, about the extent of our selfishness. This is "the elephant in the brain".

Publisher's Summary
Preview:
Robert B. Cialdini's Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion examines the compliance methods by which marketers, salespeople, and others, such as cult leaders, pressure people into doing things they would not otherwise do. There are six basic compliance tools: reciprocity, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity. Listeners can learn specific techniques to resist each.
Humans rely on standard responses in many situations. For example, when one person gives another a gift, the recipient automatically feels indebted and is inclined to reciprocate. These mental shortcuts are usually helpful both to the individual and to society as a whole. Reciprocity helps facilitate mutual aid, which in turn helps solidify social bonds. These bonds in turn strengthen both the group and the individuals within it....

it's great for what it is but it is still just a summary. it is like a more in depth back cover, gives the bullet points but not much else. I would read the actual book and use this as just a reminder of the key points.

Horrible Summary of a great book
Its been several years since I read the book so I thought this Summary would be a great way to refresh my memory of the key 6 points. It seemed to follow the chapters rather than the key ideas. While the book is great, the summary of chapters was confusing .
Read/listen to whole book, dont buy the summary.
