Title: An Enlightening Read!!
Review: If you want to know why our minds sometimes drive us to do stupid, irrational things, then this is the book to read. It gets beneath the surface of our brain/minds to examine the actual programs of our subconscious minds, which Weiner has pieced together from a myriad of references. He describes how it is largely impervious to direct rational reasoning (we can't just tell ourselves that it is foolish to be phobic about airplanes and rid ourselves of the phobia), and is why he has selected the metaphor Inner Dummy to describe this instinctive/emotional system. The book also describes in an almost playful, yet erudite way, every therapeutic strategy we might use ourselves or recommend to others in changing the nature of unwanted quirks, phobias, compulsions or other disorders that can lead us to irrational thought and action. This book definitely deserves five stars.
