This is THE book on Friendship!

I bought this book becuase i thought I did not have enough "connections" in my life. I simply did not know where to begin. How does one make friends? I have a lot of friends but not very many close friends. Why? I wanted to work on this and this book definitely give one the tools to understand friendship and improve the connections in all levels of my life. This book begins by discussing how connections of all types in our lives have eroded and how this erosion actually impacts us. I think it is very readable and well done. Dr Brehony is obviously a very intelligent and insightful person.The one thing I find particularly refreshing is that Dr Brehonny gives you specific ideas and strategies for making friends and connections of all sorts. She really explains the mechanics of friendship. Many self help books discuss ideas on such cerebral terms that there is very little information that one can specifically apply. This book, from this perspective, is very practical. I definitely recommend this book! I know you will find it interesting and, depending on your situation, very useful. Thanks, Dr Brehony, for making my life a little better!
