"I lost my job at IBM last year, and was too depressed to look for another one. After two visits to you, I found a much better job. Actually, losing my prior job was a blessing. Thanks to you, I can see the truth now." -- Milton R. Boca Raton,Fl Computer Programmer

1. I sat down to leaf through your book and couldn't put it down. Your insight is remarkable...so filled with common sense. -- N. Norvel Young, Chancellor, Emeritus, Pepperdine University

This review is from: Conquer Stress: Staying Sane in an Insane World (Paperback)

The book appears to be quick and informative and it has some good advice, but it almost makes me stressed out to read it because it is so fast paced. Of course, he tells you to read some of it over and over again to get the procedures down. Dr. Zeidman holds back no punches and he gets down to the nitty-gritty. If you want this book as a self-help book, let me tell you now, don't buy it unless you are ready to change your old habits!
