Review:Having read several of Barbara Ehrenreich's previous works, and intrigued by the subject, I was delighted to be able to review this book. I was not disappointed.
Having been diagnosed with stage 3 cancer at Christmas 6 and a half years ago and being told I would most likely not live to see summer, I once faced the prospect of death head on, and Ms. Ehrenreich's book, especially the first sections, echoed many of the thoughts I had at the time. Why are we spending so much of our precious t... Read more
Review:Very interesting and very clear. My only criticism is that the author tends to go into the stupidities of the "other side," who see animals as unfeeling and as life-like automata, at more length than they merit. Read more
Review:I love this book. It is a wonderful introduction to meditation for kids and parents alike. It is a "teacher's edition" book for the parent, explaining all the exercises on the c.d. I recommend reading through it first and getting all theory. Really great find! Read more
Review:I thought it might elaborate on some quotes, but it doesn't. It's the same size/ shape as all Little Golden Books, and takes the same amount of time to read. I gave it to my mom on Mother's Day & she seemed to genuinely like it. It's more nostalgic & decorative than insightful, but it's a fun 3 minute read for those of us who grew up with LGB.

It would be a piece of junk to an... Read more
Review:Book that lets you walk with a woman facing cancer. Kate Bowler lets you inside her thoughts as she courageously faces the worst with grace. The book would be particularly meaningful for anyone facing the same diagnosis. Read more
Review:The book is amazing. It is the foundation for Transaction Analysis. All people play games with each other, either consciously or unconsciously. This book is easy to read and will teach you how to spot a game and how to not fall into its trap.
I highly recommend it for everyone. Read more
Review:I picked up this book after listening to the podcast. This is so much better! Insightful, and never condescending, this book really is great even if neither you nor your partner has contemplated infidelity (as far as you know, anyway!). Would recommend to anyone married. Read more
Review:Really really fun and very educational. I am no youngster and this book was super. The man and woman should each read separately and then discuss and try out what you learned.
Have fun, we did. The personal reflections and stories of the author added a great background as you felt he really knew his subject. Read more
Review:This book is easy to read, not boring.
Some points of view are questionable and don't really help in one individual life
it doesn't have any new ideas that you can catch and use when you have a difficult situation.
Ideas from the other books help more. I think that book "Passionate marriage" by David Schnarch, or "Passionista" by Ian Kerner are more helpful and useful.
This is just another book with some life examples from consulting practice Read more
Review:A good primer for those interested in expanding or experimenting with their love and relationship style. Positive and well-rounded descriptions and advice. No ranting, no self-congratulatory expositions. Easy to read and access what you are looking for. Enjoy! Read more
