He offers several examples.

I'm sure this material is used by people all the time. It's a New York Times bestseller! The author himself explains this fact. But the true principles that you can extract from the writing still remain, and remain as very good advice on dating, sex and picking up women.
Didn't expect that response.

Yeah, I'd agree with some of the concepts, as I've seen them work by people who are slightly arrogant, have some certain qualities that have been brought up multiple times in this thread (Sowa).

One thing, I'm not trying to pick anyone up.. I've gotten past the first impression already. Whereas I think this book was more for meeting people and getting in the door.

Regardless I'll probably look at the book one day for casual interest

Still not posting in this thread until an update
