Not sure why but for the past 2-3 years I found myself dealing with some very difficult people. I knew all along that my skills in the area of communicating was lacking. I searched and searched for a book that would give me help, purchased this book and that one and came up short. Then one day I came across this book by Mary Heldmann. Read it through and knew that I had found 'the' book. I'm now on my 4th or 5th reading and still love it. This time I'm doing a study on it. If your having difficulties with people, this is the book for you.
Helps people who are easily hurt by others comments.
