Psychology & Counseling
Review:Fascinating study of the psyche.Insightful exploration of the myths which inform our subconscious. While the binding is sturdy, the quality of the paper is poor. Of course, this is the publisher's issue; still, I was disappointed. Read more
Review:Dr. Glover's highly readable book delivers succinctly insight after insight on the all but pervasive "Nice Guy syndrome." Without doubt, No More Mr. Nice Guy is the most illuminating explanation on the people-pleasing, self-abnegating pathology I have discovered. Read more
Review:One of the best writers in America has really produced a dud. I understand and agree with everything, but it is very poorly written. I have lost respect for him because of this book. I am sure the only reason it was published was because he is David Brooks. Read more
Review:This is a book for anyone who wonders why they have not or choose not to make changes and what gets in their way. Brene Brown backs up her beliefs with hands on research and a good dose of humility and humor. It is a self help book that reminds us we can't do it without support and connection. Great job Brene.

Review:This is a very moving book that makes you realize that it is not money that buys you happiness but service and compassion to your fellow human beings.

Review:This book is just amazing. I've read it over and over at times and every single time I read it, it hits home. I've recommended it so many times to different people. I needed this book to let go, I'm so happy I read it. Thank you! Read more
Review:I read this book when it first came out in the 70s. I was impressed then and was impressed again when I read it this time. No complaints there.
This is a book written by a psychotherapist for psychotherapists and patients of psychotherapy. I am neither, but there are good thoughts and things of great worth to me between these covers.
The book itself, though newly printed and bound, was rather cheaply put-together. I am careful with my books, but several pages just fell out of this ... Read more
Review:INCREDIBLE! I have recommended this book to several friends already and everyone has loved it! It does an incredible job of explaining why we are attracted to the wrong people, but more importantly how to change that! Codependency is revealed in a whole new way! A must read! Read more
Review:I am amazed about the way I feel my soul connected with the author's words while I'm reading this incredible book. It's an indescribable feeling, almost as if the book was written for me. I am the result of emotionally immature parents, and it's been a real struggle for me. Issues such as individuation vs. enmeshment, flexible vs. loose boundaries, parental expectations and fantasies have been struggles I've had to deal throughout my whole life. Dr. Gibson explains these and other neuralgic conc... Read more
Review:My boyfriend thought it would be a good read for us since we clicked and carried on rather quickly in our budding relationship. It was a great read with a lot to think about! We're engaged now and I think this book has secrets on how to be successful partners in a relationship that everyone should learn. Read more
