How to Be Your Own Best Friend Mildred Newman and Bernard Berkowitz

A national bestseller in 1971 with advice on this important subject still very applicable today. Wonderfully appropriate to the subject and to today, is the opening sentence of the introduction: "When Thoreau remarked that most men live lives of quiet desparation, he could not have foreseen how noisy that despration would become". Definitely addressed to the hassles of being your own best friend in these hectic times. Basic questions that the reader is forced to analyze and respond to like "you are either happy or you are not."
