Default Book Suggestions on Relationship Building

I need some suggestions on books about relationship building, interpersonal skills and making friends and contacts. I noticed in another thread that Six Pillars of Self Esteem is highly recommended. Any others?

I highly recommend this book:

Amazon.com: Messages: The Communication Skills Book: Books: Matthew McKay,Martha Davis,Patrick Fanning

I also recommend Difficult Conversations, Fierce Conversations and Crucial Conversations, for the difficult times in relationships.

You might also gain some benefit from books on networking nad rapport building. One I've heard is good is "Never eat alone". Amazon link here:

Amazon.com: Never Eat Alone: And Other Secrets to Success, One Relationship at a Time: Books: Keith Ferrazzi,Tahl Raz

I wrote some jumbled thoughts on the subject here, too:

How to be better

And, of course, How to Win Friends and Influence People.

Hope this helps.
