Excellent Series - Very Easy to Use and Understand
This "What to Do" series was very useful to me as a parent. It explains complex psychological ideas at a child's level without condescending to them and then attempts to help them learn how deal with those strong emotions. I purchased this book and What to Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety (What to Do Guides for Kids) after my 5-year old was diagnosed with Type 1 ...

What the FDA says is safe, isn't necessarily what you want to eat.
Just like the author says, anyone who eats needs to read this book. It's a pocket-sized reference guide. Pick it up!

I'm working on it!
I'm not a "bad girl" yet, but the book has inspired me to bring some sheltered "wants" out in the open and into my personality. The book is both funny and an easy to swallow dose of confidence.

A wonderful resource!
I sat down on my porch and read this through yesterday upon receiving it. It is a wonderful, LARGE book (8.5 X 11) with large type, easy to read and easy on the eyes. Our son who just turned 7 has had struggles with anxiety off and on for years. This book is 'right up his alley'! He is an imaginative boy, and draws to express what is in his mind. This book is full of pages where the anxious ...

a little book to dream on --- armchair travel to Italy
I can remember traveling to Italy when the dollar was strong and the lira was downtrodden. Trading dollars for lira was quite the jolly experience --- at the currency exchange in Rome, you practically needed a shopping bag to carry a few hundred dollars in Italian money. Now the Ferragamo is on the other foot. The Euro reigns supreme, and here in New York, the best restaurants and shops post ...

Ron Rocks!
Ron Burley is my hero! His book has some great suggestions and with his help, I received a $1500 refund from a crooked matchmaking agency. I think his book is much more useful and inspirational than the other book on this page (Shocked, Appalled...). With all the dishonest businesses taking advantage of unsuspecting consumers who are too busy and overworked to pursue what's rightfully ours, we ...
Now What?: The Young Person's Guide to Choosing the Perfect Career

, 2008
Groundbreaking Aid to People Choosing a Career
Nick Lore has written a book that takes career choice seriously while writing in a tone that is light enough to be read. He has moved so far past those ridiculously unhelpful "aptitudes and interests" tests foisted upon high school and college students that it does this book a disservice by putting it in the same category as those tests. As an industrial-organizational psychologist, I have ...

My new ACA Bible
Whoever said it was too cookbook hasn't appreciated the the value of having a thorough one at hand. I loved the Friel's approach. It is a bit harder on the ego than the Woititz ACOA book but this one includes ALL dysfunctions, and I know even after years in recovery I will still find valuable resources in this book to guide me along my bumpy journey. As one who has NO idea what is normal, yet ...

New Tradition Books

The only guide you'll ever need!
The gist is this: How to please your woman so she will, inevitablly, please you. And this book shows you how. It's got some great advice, much better than others I've read in the past. It is also written in an easy to read manner and all the tips come off as something a guy can actually do to bring his lover to orgasm. I found it to be the best I've read, thus so far.

Good for discussion about LIFE!
This book is facinating enough, in deriving it's facts from the top sources that track data on death world wide, like the World Health Organization, (WHO) or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, (CDC). Other US National organizations are referenced as well, for accuracy - and the years in discussion are 2001 and 2002, unless otherwise stated. That being said, there are many topics ...
