5.0 out of 5 stars MINIATURE BOOK! Read the parenthesis carefully! April 27, 2007
Format:Hardcover
I will come back to fully review the book - but I want others to not make the same mistake.

SCROLL ABOVE and make sure you have either the paperback or the hardback WITHOUT the parenthesis. There are 2 hardbacks - one normal version - and the other is the MINIATURE in size and length.

I am so frustrated I will have to resell this one myself or possibly pay return costs to Amazon.

3.0 out of 5 stars Be careful to order the right thing!! September 22, 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book which I often use as a reference in my pastoral counseling. Somehow Amazon has this book listed as the hardback edition of the book, but it is actually a MINIATURE GIFT EDITION. It's my fault for not reading the fine print, but if you want the full book, DON'T BUY THIS ONE. You can get the paperback edition which is the full book. Again, a great book, but Amazon is a little confusing here. Caveat emptor!

By C. VERA
Format:Hardcover
I strongly recommend this book, especially if you are a person who cares for people around you. It is a book about managing life in a way that has been included in the Bible for Centuries, but if you do not believe in the Bible, well, it contains universal principles that anybody with common sense and an interest on having a life with himself or herself and in harmony with others (harmony probably is not the right word, but it is close enough). You need to know who you are, before you can help other people to define themselves, because as long as you do not know what your boundaries (who you are) are, you are just playing the victim and that is not a place for anybody, excellent book about taking resposibility of yourself and others in a responsable way. Read it and practice what you need to improve.

If we dated other people with this kind of practices, you would be able to know who the one is and potentially avoid desillusion and putting your money on lenghty therapies to find out what was wrong in the first place.

The only thing is that I did not realize this was a very mini-sized book. Probably I misunderstood when I ordered. I will re-order a regular sized book.
