The book is awesome, he is as straight forward, no nonsense even more then on his show. Now for the seller he sold the book as very good gently used, bah ha, someone went wild in this book from very other page highlighting and what really urges me these handwritten personal notes in between the writings and writing on that small empty strip with chicken scratch blah blah, this book should have never been sold the way it is. When I got the book I didn't look inside before I gave the seller a 5 star rating. Big mistake. BUT DR. PHIL IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
