    After fighting in a War that took the lives of dozens of my friends and everyone hated me for participating in, I left the Military in 1978 and had to regain my footing in a Nation of changed values. I was angry and frustrated. After reading "Get Even...." in 1980, I was ready to get some payback. Fortunately a kind WWII Veteran and business owner saw what I was going through and hired me at a good wage. After 30 years of working in a highly technical field, I saw the old "Get Even.." in print again and had to buy it. After reading it I had to chuckle at myself for even contemplating "getting even" with anybody using these techniques. It was a very innovative, imaginative, and interesting book to published at the time and still a fun read. Why not, we had just elected a California movie star to be the President of the United States!

    While many of the techniques in this book are antiquated it is hilarious and gives inspiration for modifying things to fit modern technological advances. The company I bought the book from listed it as "good" condition. Actually it looks new. I'm fully satisfied on all counts.

    While going through a rough patch at work, when I would have liked nothing more than to pull some of these dirty tricks on some of the people I worked with, this book helped me retain a sense of humor about it all. It was quite satisfying and amusing to picture the results of the tricks on my tormentors. However some of the ideas expressed in the book are down right mean and border on illegal. They also require a devious mind and evil bend of character to preform. Not for me, and this book should never be allowed into the hands of your enemies.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 23, 2021
    This book is fun to read but it does not offer ANY practical information on what the title or description says! If you'd like to read some fun fiction then buy it but if you want actual advice then look somewhere else. The description and title are NOT accurate!!!

    Ein wenig enttäuschend. Nichts wirklich Neues, was man nicht in einem gewissen Alter (40+) schon wissen sollte.
