Book Review: A must-read for all human beings...
Summary: 5 Stars
Bringing psychology into plain English, Dr. David Lieberman offers a wealth of information that is useful for every reader. No one is immune from the emotional fragilities that accompany life. While some people are more stable than others, each individual has experienced certain fears and self-doubts. Leiberman artfully addresses many of these circumstances by identifying the problem, analyzing the situation and offering several solutions. The main text, which is divided into 100 easy to read and understand chapters, teaches the reader to overcome his or her self-defeating habits. Lieberman states, "By becoming aware of your behavior, thoughts and feelings, you make visible the process and gain the ability to see the harm." Thus, when one is able to indentify and admit self-defeating habits, one has taken the first step to conquering the problem, and is on the road to wellness. Lieberman states that the objective here is to break up the negative mental routine and break free from conditioned thought patterns. As he writes, "This is accomplished by looking objectively at specific behaviors that usually go unnoticed or unexamined. As you begin to question these behaviors, you will get in the 'habit' of not being in the habit." How does one identify these unnoticed behaviors? Dr. Lieberman does the work for the reader. By looking through the 100 chapters, the reader will be able to indentify with certain circumstances that he or she may not have noticed, because the self-defeating behavior has become habit. For example, several chapters include: "Why do I always stare at myself in the mirror?" "Why am I so absent-minded?" "Why am I so easily discouraged?" "Why do I misplace my keys, papers, and just about everything else?" (my favorite), "Why do I enjoy being angry"?, and "Why do I act cruelly to people I care about?" By scanning the table of contents, the reader ! ! will be able to identify several self-defeating habits that! the reader engages in -- realized or unrealized. By reading the entire text, the reader will understand basic human pyschology as a whole: the reader will understand his or her problems as well as the weaknesses of others. *Instant Analysis* is the modern "Cliff Notes" of human psychology. After identifying the problem, Dr. Lieberman describes several scenarios applicable to the the situation and offers several helpful solutions. For example, in the chapter concerning losing keys, etc. Lieberman offered several suggestions that has helped me overcome this most frustrating situation. *Instant Analysis* is a must-read for all human beings. As humans, no one is immune from self-defeating habits. By indentifying the problem and offering concise and powerful solutions, Dr. Leiberman can save each reader hundreds of dollars in psychiatric fees and hours of therapy. *Instant Analysis* is the bible of modern psychology, written for "everyday people."
