Book reviews
My HarperCollins book The Turn-On was named one of the top five marketing books of the year by Porchlight Book Reviews. The book received widespread acclaim, including:
“A potentially life-changing read from cover to cover.” – Midwest Book Reviews
“Every page is fascinating.” – Booklist
“Goldstein’s expertise shines in a psychologically provocative study on the gravity of charm.” – Kirkus Reviews
“Highly recommended. Goldstein’s background as a congressional lawyer, television producer, activist, and communications adviser has provided him ample opportunity to study the construct of likeability.” – Library Journal
