Review title: Almost worthless
Product review: I picked this up figuring it might be worth the deeply discounted price I paid; I'd thumbed through it and it seemed insightful, notwithstanding the blatent self-help title and cover. As I read through it, though, I kept waiting for the author to start putting his rambling, meandering musings together into something reasonably coherent and practical, but he never does. In fact, the more I read, the less coherent the book became, sounding more and more like a psychologist pacing in his office, dictating his random thoughts, before moving on to some other, more lucrative task. The ideas are very elementary, and tend to be repeated and illustrated with overly obvious stories, suggesting that the author was trying to stretch already thin material into a book. I'm not familiar with the author's other books; perhaps he has some interesting ideas but has expressed them already elsewhere. I'm not motivated to find out now.
