review 1: This is a practical guide to some very common emotional upsets that all of us have felt at one time or another in our lives. Each problem is described, examples are give and various ways of dealing with the problems are outlined at the end of the chapter.All in all this would be a great handbook for everyone if we were only to ask ourselves at times, "is there something I can do about the terrible way I feel today?" Surely this book could help a lot of people.
review 2: it was good, simplified and practical, aimed at the general readers and not for scientific researchers.I'm not sure if it's the first of its kind or not, but I think it's a good and important topic to be discussed. the book is divided by the emotional symptom and then at the end of each chapte... morer he gives the prescription. Although giving anecdotes supposed to bring the meaning closer to you and to your understanding, the stories of the people -for me- was annoying. and I couldn't tell if they were true or made up to present as an example. I think it will be better if you go through the chapters you need at the moment rather than reading the whole book all at once.because at some points it is repetitive and somehow 'too obvious' .in the end, there's no magical pills or methods that could bring you any salvation. it's the process, and will power.oh yes, and check out the Author talk at Google talks. less
