  A history of flattery, showing it to be an art form well worth studying. Ranging from the Pyramids of Ancient Egypt, an outrageous form of physical self-flattery to the publication of How To Win Friends and Influence People . It looks at flattery during the Renaissance and President Clinton on the opening day of his impeachment inquiry: I trust the American people. They almost always get it right .
