Dr. Simon writes interesting books. He goes into values - their clarification and realization. It's like looking at Freud's "superego" but in depth and in a practical way ... user friendly. I was lucky to attend Sid's workshops one summer and that is why I still look for books by him. I can't imagine anyone not getting good from his books. Bye before I get emotional ... :-)

This review is from: Meeting Yourself Halfway: Thirty-One Values Clarification Strategies for Daily Living (Paperback)

This is an excellent little book, with lots of "how to" exercises. It was used as a textbook for a Community College short course. When life becomes so hectic that you meet yourself at the door, this book will help you clarify what is important to you, mangage your conflicts and set your own priorities. It will make a thoughtful gift.
