Product Description
The Irish Catholic - December 1994
Shyness has at sometime or another affected us all - however confident, gregarious or open we may appear to the outside world. The fear of rejection or negative responses from others can seriously affect our lives so that we miss out on relationships, a social life and job opportunities. This author, a confessed sufferer of chronic shyness, addresses the problem of this social affliction, not with quick-fix remedies and instant solutions, but with half-step-by-half-step- suggestions which will help us to make shyness work for us and build our confidence to help us outgrow our apprehensions.
Garrison Keillor, humourist, author of Lake Woebegone Days
Scripture says that the meek shall inherit the earth. Do we want to? I don't know. But if we are going to, then this book would probably help us run things, assuming we accept the deal. We'll see

Don't think this book is the solution, 24 Aug 2001
By Seminarian - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Overcoming Shyness (Paperback)
I've only read about 30 pages, but already I am not satisfied with it. What is this about Jesus somehow being too shy and affected by the labels given to him by those in Nazareth as the reason why He could not perform miracles there? Since when did Jesus become discouraged by what others said of him? I read this book because I am very very chronically shy to the point where I am depressed half the time, but I'm not so gullible as to be pampered by comforting words that are clearly out of line with what I think to be the true meaning of a passage. In other thoughts thus far, I think the author is trying to target too wide an audience, giving it a rather impersonal tone. I will finish it nonetheless, for hope that it bring some advice to me, but truly I think the solution for you and for me comes from a life of prayer and patience and acceptance for who God has made you and believing that He loves you.
