You'll Be Surprised by the Personal Revelations Gained from This Book

I was unprepared for the personal revelations that came from this book's self-quizzes. Author John Liptak's brief tests refreshed my thinking about key areas of my life.

I had grown tired of self-help books and was delighted by this fun, unique guide to practical self-reflection.
