5.0 out of 5 stars Strong, powerful book on managing & changing one's attitudes, 14 Jun 1998

By A Customer

Dr. Ellis thinks most people create their own misery by distorted thinking (such as 'I must be perfect'; 'everyone else must be perfect'; and 'the world must be perfect'.) The neat part is that if one has distorted thinking, one can *change* that thinking. A powerful self-help book and one of the few which can be 'life changing'. No hint of 'positive thinking', 'count your blessings', or 'trust in <fill in the blank>. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book changed my life, 5 Jul 2005

By A Customer

I found the book very easy to read as it combines deep concepts with humour. Ellis takes us through insights gained working as a pychotherapist for over 50 yrs. Each point is followed by exercises which helped me to see where I was causing myself to overreact and feel extremely anxious or angry. This book has helped me to think more rationally and use my energy in more productive ways.It also deals with irrational fears, embarrassment, procrastination and addictions. I now know what to do when I slip back into my old ways and I know that I am a lot happier and calmer since I read the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Using common sense to keep from feeling miserable., 20 Jan 1999

By A Customer

The ABC's of Rational Emotive Therapy are presented in a not so scientific approach that allows for greater comprehension and absorption of the material. It's a common sense approach to dealing with our irrational concepts. The words "Self-Help" actually apply to this book. The ideas learned here will be useful for every life situation for the duration of your life.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good advice ... writing style could have been better.
The advice is good enough--one wouldn't go astray following it. However, I found the writing style somewhat cumbersome.
