The Teen Scene ""It's survival of the fittest, especially in matters of the heart. Have you been training?"" The sequel to Girlosophy: A Soul Survival Kit, Girlosophy 2: The Love Survival Kit by Anthea Paul, wraps spirituality and self-esteem in a graphically hip package. Based on the seven chakras, and characterized by color photography and sleek design, chapters like Survival, Heart and Unity emanate an aura of cool; a ""Girlossary"" defines terms like compassion, karma and marriage. A list of Paul's favorite books (e.g., The Autobiography of the Dalai Lama of Tibet) rounds out the volume. (May)
