Robert Cialdini in his book "Influence: Psychology of Persuasion" takes a 
part a sub-set of the world of influence and helpfully puts it into 
clearly defined and named categories by the use of terminology. That, not 
the text, is the greatest asset of the book.

Cialdini and associates have a new book "Yes!: 50 Scientifically Proven
Ways to Be Persuasive" that I have found to be a great read. It is 50
chapters, 2 to 4 pages each in length, that examine various aspects of
persuasion and why they work. The book is physically small, about the
size of a paperback novel, so it is a quick read and idea for reading
during a commute.

If you liked "Influence", I think you will really like this one too.
It's a lot more concise.
