May 14, 2021Best psychological book I've ever read. I highly recommend it
February 2, 2015
This pocketbook is one of my favourite 'problem solvers'. The seven 'problem solving' steps offer a toolbox of mind techniques to "change the things I can". This clearly written little book gets right to the point, as it addresses some of life's more trying issues.
This book is one of my "keepers" that I refer to on a regular basis.
A good value purchased at a book recycler for $6.00.
