No different than any self help book written from the 80's. Human flaws and quirks are just a part of life, and shouldn't be viewed as a constant drama. I interpreted the book as one that perpetuates whining and viewing one's self as a victim. Let me save readers their money: There are no victims, only volunteers. People will treat you the way you let them treat you. If you don't like something, say so and remove yourself from the situation, and if it makes someone mad, they'll just have to get glad at their own pace. Take care of yourself, and everything around you will fall into place.I gave it a 2 because there were no misspelled words.
