Negative Positive
Title: Learned helplessness repackaged as coping skills
Review: The highly sensitive person, a creature undefined in this text and rooted nowhere in the realms of psychology or sociology, deserves much better than being pandered to and infantilized. Rather than teach coping mechanisms and skills for interpreting interpersonal communication, Aron's advice encourages narcissistic behavior and serves to convince the reader that they are fundamentally different from others in an undefined way, incapable of functioning on a basic social level, and rudderless without her help.The section on relationships, which advocates arguing by dodging valid questions, should be particularly ignored.I never leave negative reviews on this site, but I feel I should warn prospective buyers. Avoid this book.
