This adventure into far-reaching psychological thought provides more than eighty exercises -- designed to be done alone, in pairs, or in a group setting -- for exploring the underlying unity that is quantum consciousness and the quantum approach to problem resolution.

The book presents techniques and exercises for improving learning effectiveness and becoming more resilient. It was the basis for exercises at a hybrid (outdoor confidence course plus cognitive exercises) learning camp for youth. There are better resources available now but, at the time (pre-web), this was one of the more useful.
This reminds me a lot of the Manual of Self-Realization by Swami Lakshman Joo, in that it’s really a collection of simple exercises that I think could result in real insight if someone picked one or a few and practiced them diligently. I think it’s maybe even better, because many of the exercises are responding to typical challenges people face in modern Western culture, so there’s probably some real motivation available, and because Wolinsky takes the time to explain more as to the reasons for the practices. By the way, he has some excellent YouTube videos that go through some of this material, I didn’t realize until I read it recently that a lot of it was in this book decades earlier.
