Book Reviews of How to Ruin Your Life

Book Review: Not very good
Summary: 1 Stars

This book is really not very good. It is a waste of time. The only thing I found funny was the chapter titles. The rest of the material is just fluff and a way for Ben Stein to cash in. I bought the book, read about 20 pages and finally gave up.

Summary of How to Ruin Your Life

How to Ruin Your Life is a powerful self-help tool in the form of a work of humor. It is sardonic advice, presented in a tongue-in-cheek style, explaining how people can "ruin" their lives. Topics include essays such as "Convince Yourself That You're The Center of the Universe," "Think The Worst of Everyone," and "You Can Change People."

Seriously, though, to anyone who listens to this CD, it is an earnest warning about falling into traps of self-destructive behavior that can ruin any man or woman's life. More than that, it comprises 35 steps which—if read and understood—provide a road map to making life work in the most effective way possible. It is humor and self-help all in one, delivered by Ben Stein, a man who has witnessed more than his share of people who did ruin their lives—as well as those whose lives have been wildly successful.
