This discerning, revealing, thought-filled book is a must for anyone and everyone who realizes just how our emotional life can sabotage our best efforts to mature. It teaches one just how valuable one's actions and reactions matters in our ability to be and to act in an intelligent way. Intelligence is much more than being able to inculcate book knowledge. How we treat each other and how we allow others to treat us is a great part, in my opinion, on whether a person is intelligent or not. Some of the smartest people I have known are so lacking in the ability to be connected to or to live in their heart. If you just want to live in you head, this book is not for you. If you would like to improve your life this is the book for you. If you would like to understand why people act as they do which confuses the devil out of you, this book is for you. It has my highest recommendation. I still refer to it and browse through it. It's knowledges are that good.
