Self-Helpless: The Greatest Self-Help Books You'll Never Read

I laughed till I cried. For those out there who think that self-help books can solve all your problems, this may not be for you. But those of us who think this whole self-help thing has gone too far, will be highly amused by the authors' creative parody of the most popular books in this area.The authors create book blurbs around their made-up titles. The text is evenly funny throughout. Even if this was created one or two nights in a bar over some drinks, it's a hysterical romp.Some zany book titles include: I'm OJ, Your OJ, Embraced by the Light FM, and a spoof on all those helpful travel guides -- Let's Go Hell.It makes for some great bathroom reading, or might be perfect as a gag gift for friends who may be hapless victims of this self-help syndrome. My advice, quit reading books about how sick you are and how you need to change, and start reading more books such as this and develop a sense of humor. Laughter IS the best medicine.

I love so much the being of this book! It's the only thing I have in my bathroom (besides toilet paper). You can turn to any page and find some hysterical line and clever take. The self-help section keeps growing,and Self-Helpless is the antidote!

A hilarious and refreshing antidote to the self-help world! As a clinical social worker dedicated to Mind/Body theory and practice, I am committed to helping my clients use humor and laughter as an effective coping mechanism for depression and stress. This book is filled with wildly outrageous parodies (e.g. When Bad Things Happen to Good HUMOR people, The CON Artist's Way) evoking just the right dose of healing. It is now my choice of gifts to everyone! Laugh and heal yourself!

Wonderful spoof on the age of "self-help" that is going on and has gone on for years. Highly rec- commended for anyone with a sense of humor and/or anyone who has seen a counselor. Great!!!!!

OK, I don't mean to be provocative, but I really did think Python's deliciously sick brand of humor had kind of died (like Graham Chapman). I was wrong. This book is sick, funny, hilarious, sick, knee slapping. I got it as a gift and plan to send copies to every friend I've ever had. READ THIS BOOK. It's guaranteed to make you laugh out loud!
