The Forgiveness Solution: The Whole-Body Rx for Finding True Happiness, Abundant Love, and Inner Peace

Philip H. Friedman, . . Conari, $16.95 (252pp) ISBN 978-1-57324-462-6

This hands-on workbook for those seeking emotional well-being, is not for the faint of effort. Friedman, who says the inability to forgive underlies all emotional ills, peppers his years of psychotherapeutic research with affirmations, exercises both mental and physical, and writing assignments designed to improve one's ability to forgive. The trouble with Friedman's book is not his scholarship but finding the inordinate amount of time required to complete all the exercises aimed at eliciting insight. (Jan.)
