I personally have not read "The Game" by Neil Strauss

but i picked up a copy of "Learn the Game in 30 Days" by the same author.
Its very similar to "The Game", but it's fashioned as a 30 day program to improve your social ability with women.
i can honestly say (I'm not getting paid or anything to say this) ever since reading Neil Strauss' work,
my life has changed.
I've become more confident with myself and comfortable with others.
Also, his words have drastically changed the way i look at things (not only women and relationships).
I remember buying this book for $35 but the lessons i fished from it are
PRICELESS.
