5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful book, October 29, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Transformation Handbook (Paperback)

I found this book very thoughfully written and got much support and reassurance from reading it. It reads very easily (even for those that don't like to read!)and the author gets to the point without wasting a lot of space and time on empty content. I like the workbook feel of it because I can often go back and reapply or adjust my answers based on what's going on in my life at the time and get back on track with life. With topics on a variety of areas for transformation I have actually been able to get help with most things I've had difficulty with. Especially the chapters on Griefwork were very helpful at this time of turmoil in the USA.
