Amazing and life changing.
| Customer Rating: | I've always been very skeptical about self-help books, but after being recommended this book by someone I respect I thought I'd give it a try.
Its an amazing book which has quite literally transformed my life and the way I think about things. I would recommend it to anyone, even those who are fit, well and completely happy in their lives. I'm sure that it would be of benefit to anyone who reads it and its cheap!! |
Buy this book!
| Customer Rating: | | I bought this book 13 years or so ago. It was my essential reading for ages. Then I kind of forgot about it. Then I slid further down the spiral for several years. I just picked it up again...it's cheaper & funnier than therapy, no quick fixes, no 'magic bullet' but really good 'dip in' reading. Recommended reading. |
Very destructive book
| Customer Rating: | This is a very destructive book - don't read it if you're at all unsure of yourself or at a "low point"!
The first two thirds of the book very accurately describe the bad effects of negative thought. Although this may be useful from an academic point of view, the writing style means that you just end up focusing on these negative thoughts.
The last third tries to repair the damage by attempting to get you to construct an imaginary world in your head where you have all the help and support you need.
Note that the book gives you no help in the real world!
Some of the quotes (from other authors) given at the bottom each page are interesting and thoughful - but, for your health, avoid reading anything actually written by the two authors of this unhealthy trash. |
self-help lite
| Customer Rating: | | I bought this book after reading how great reviewers thought it was, but ended up being very disappointed. Even after stripping out the endless stream of pithy and often only partially relevant quotes which pepper the book, one is left with the distinct impression that the authors (whose credentials are nowhere to be seen in the book, by the way) have simply regurgitated the obvious. I would have liked more practical and original advice for people seeking to dig their way out of a spiral of default negative thinking instead of bland sweeping exhortations to 'embrace and love life', 'live for today' etc which might work for you if you are a therapy junkie but for us Brits, we tend to want a bit more substance. The humour grated on me too but you expect that with a US title to some degree. I genuinely hoped this would give us some new insight into a common problem but it just ended up trotting out the same old guff. Not even the most positive thinking can save this from the 'waste of money' pile! |
