The tips in this book have not been placed in any particular order. I have written them down the way they came to me as I was writing this book. They all have their place and importance in the business of selling. And selling is everybody's job today. The book is not meant to be read cover to cover in one sitting, but rather to be used as a workbook where you only read one tip a day and write your notes at the bottom of each page. So keep it at your desk and in a 3 months' time you will have preserved to memory the 91 tips on selling.

Alfred Hitchcock's comments in his frequent interviews have encouraged many critics to assume that the director's true career began in 1934 with The Man Who Knew Too Much, the first in a long, almost unbroken string of thrillers. Then, having defined Hitchcock as a specialist, these critics select from his earlier work only those films that anticipate his later career: The Lodger (1927), Blackmail (1929), Murder! (1930), and Number Seventeen (1932). Such a perspective, mired in the confidence of hindsight, results in a highly misleading view of the director, one that dismisses his 12 other early features-eight silent and four sound-and implies that he was merely marking time until his "true" creative personality emerged. Hitchcock was, in fact, a major director from the very start of his career in 1925 and for 10 years he made substantial, mature features that reveal an impressive consistency in content and form. This book examines those all important films.
