More effective communication, greater collaboration, and highly effective solutions to problems in any situation.

Marilee Adams's clear instructions show you how!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great book on question thinking. It describes how a few key questions you ask yourself and others can change your emotion, how you relate to others and your actions. While I did not like the authors attempt to make a thin plot story to describe her theory, at least she tied it all together in the last chapter and has free material on her web site that helps you implement what you read.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/51/2 star - because I can't go lowerGarbage pop psychology; I received this, unsolicited, from a back stabbing co-worker. I believe this was a "peace offering". Unknown to her (we've since lost touch), this book was highly insulting in its over simplistic view of cognitive psychology.Recommend for people who believe "Who Moved My Cheese" is profound.
