How to Win Friends and Influence People was a book that George McFly read in 1954. However, instead of helping him be more social, the advice he took from it made people — with the exception of Biff Tannen, who rubbed a hero sandwich in George's face — stay even farther away from him.

Leon Shimkin of the publishing firm Simon & Schuster took one of the 14-week courses given by Carnegie in 1934. Shimkin persuaded Carnegie to let a stenographer take notes from the course to be revised for publication. In 1981, a new revised edition containing updated language and anecdotes was released. The revised edition reduced the number of sections from 6 to 4, eliminating sections on effective business letters and improving marital satisfaction.
