Book Description

January 17, 2002
"Inner Simple-Mindedness has the potential to do to the self-help field what AIDS did for the sexual revolution and bring it to a halt. Every self-proclaimed, advice-giving guru will be trying to buy this book before you do, so they can hide it.  Not only do Fass and Morse turn the art of giving advice inside out, they bend it out of shape. For those tired of books offering magical ways to reduce stress we must salute these authors, who aren't afraid to make us laugh."

  - Hal Sirowitz, author of Mother Said and My Therapist Said

Go Simple!
In this wickedly funny spoof of the simple living movement, co-authors Robert Fass and Mary Morse skewer the national obsession with all things simple. You'll laugh out loud at their twisted take on the simplicity books, magazines, and gurus that promise modern humans an easy escape from psychic and lifestyle overload. In more than 50 brief, easy-to-read entries, Inner Simple-Mindedness tackles the complexities of modern life and then provides solutions that are at once absurd and perfectly logical.
  • Learn to Enjoy Uncooked Food
  • Stop Reading
  • Build Your Own Outhouse
  • Simple-Minded Job Search Tips
This spiritual masterwork will guide you past all of the annoyances (job, family, friends, etc.) that currently distract you. At home, at work, in relationships and more, the teachings of Inner Simple-Mindedness will help you truly simplify your life.

If you've had enough of Oprah, Martha, hot yoga and Tuesdays with Morrie, you'll agree... Inner Simple-Mindedness is simply hilarious!

5.0 out of 5 stars ROTFLOL, April 7, 2002

This review is from: Inner Simple-Mindedness: Unclutter Your Life and Empty Your Head in 50 Easy Steps (Paperback)
Fass and Morse brilliantly lampoon the psychobabble that has become way too popular on our bookshelves and TVs. The "advice" offered throughout the book, if followed, would surely put anyone on the street or in jail. This book would make a great gift for anyone with a sense of humor, and an even better one for a pompous blowhard! With chapters on everything from the joy of adult diapers to setting your children free, there's something for everyone in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for everyone!, April 6, 2002
By 
This review is from: Inner Simple-Mindedness: Unclutter Your Life and Empty Your Head in 50 Easy Steps (Paperback)
Not only will this book appeal to people of all ages, but the tone is so consistent and specific while addressing something very broad, that it will almost feel as though the book was written for its readers personally. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read!, May 28, 2002
By 
Dani (New York City, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Inner Simple-Mindedness: Unclutter Your Life and Empty Your Head in 50 Easy Steps (Paperback)
This is one of the most enjoyable books I've read in a long time!

It's a definite must read for everyone who takes life too seriously and everyone who doesn't.

This book turned me into one of those envied subway riders. You know, the one who's laughing and giggling over their book and everyone around them tries to sneak a peak to see what's so funny.

Do yourself a favor, buy a copy for yourself and another for someone close to you!
