<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Infused with their trademark dry wit and gentile satire, Bolton and Dickson offer a hilarious look at all the self-help books that crowd bookstore shelves. The work is a funny and fascinating look at the modern world as reflected in the endless need for self-improvement.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A Self-Help Spoof for the Life Impaired Right here in this book store, you can find hundreds of them -- self-help books. They tell you how to improve your finances, lose weight, age gracefully, and influence people. But even after reading all those books, you're still a mess. It can only mean one thing: maybe life's just not that into you. Once you open you mind to this possibility, you can quit beating yourself up. It's all about attitude. It's about the find art of whining. It's about losing your shirt, but keeping your dignity. It's about being dull and boring, but making it work for you. It's about losing friends and influencing nobody. It's about just saying no to dieting because, well, let's be honest, carbs just taste good. A hilarious, good-natured spoof on more that fifty self-help books, this book will leave you feeling better about who you are and laughing your way to becoming the person God created you to be.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>I have fond memories of working with Martha on the <i>Bob Hope Show</i> specials in the <i>80s</i> and <i>90s.</i> she's one of a kind!<br> -- Bob Mills, comedy writer, lecturer, radio host (www.hope-wrtier.blogspot.com)<br><br>Martha and her witty pen amazed me even when we worked side by side those many years turning out wisecracks for Bob Hope.<br> -- Gene Perret, four-time Emmy award-winning writer for Bob Hope, the <i>Carol Burnett Show, </i>and numerous others<br><br>Sharp, funny, satirical, and relevant.
