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.

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?"
