Review:This book is just what I was hoping it would be. About six months ago I began working with a personal trainer and he introduced me to the principles of weight training. Looking ahead to when I'll no longer be able to afford such a luxury (which will be soon!), I wanted a book that will serve up the same kind of inspiration offered by my trainer. The illustrations are great and the exercises are organized by body part, which is why I purchased this one. Read more

Review:You can judge this book by its title. It is a classic effort detailing the follies of mass psychology. The author is successful in showing how a crowd of rational thinking people act completely irrationally as trends become popular and people are psyched to believe that they are the gospels of truth. The real life events in this book are the basis for the study of group dynamics and psychology. It is written in great detail, so for those who love studying and learning from history, this is great... Read more

Review:This book offers great insight to mindfulness about being a woman, but need a revision to be more appropriate for today... 2012. Bought a few for my friends and they all said the same thing. Would love to have a revised edition. Read more

Review:Okay...like others have said The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck is NOT for everyone...but it is for many (don't be afraid to admit it) or give a f*ck what others think about YOU deciding it's time to STOP giving so many f*cks.Too many "f" words...well not sorry. My sons knew how excited I was for this book to come out and asked me, "Mom, how many times does Sarah use the "f" word in the book?" Well I found out and it's 731! In my opinion this is book is genius and so is the author. I'm... Read more

Review:I am a big believer in developing habits and I believe in small steps (mini habits) grow into bigger better habits. Author talks too much about himself and not enough about how to do it. It's OK but I have had other books that have motivated me much more. Read more

Review:I found it to be very easy to read, enjoyed all the thoughts and found a lot made so much sense to me. I didn't do all the lesson. I just found there were too many. I did what I thought would be most helpful for me. Sometimes too many lesson and we get lost or we lose interest! That is just me! Someone else may enjoy it very much or feel it would help them.It was good to understand how the lessons we learned as children stay in our lives and how we judge ourselves! Sometimes just a little too mu... Read more

Review:The Happiness Animal goes into depth on how to be happy with theoritical scenarios, exercises, famous quotes, and the author's real life experiences. It goes on to say how someone wears a superficial mask in order to become more like the person they think they should be, not the person that they want to be. It also goes into detail about tolerance, forgiveness, pride vs self-esteem, and anger. This book is good for someone looking for happiness internally as opposed to externally. The author put...
