Very helpful understanding why we are judgemental!
It's like someone splashing ice water in your face unexpectedly... But it does wake one up to the subtle games we play within ourselves to justify a critical attitude towards our fellow humans. This book is a bit simplistic but in order to stay focused on the main issue, judgementalness vs. neediness, I believe the simplistic approach was well serves the audience. Thank you David Hunter!
