This book is about handling emotional landslides, basically emotional breakdowns.  I bought this book because we all have our emotional moments and I have run into too many books that simply have you over think your emotions or turn them off.  This book is different.  It doesn't over analyze the emotions you might be experiencing and it does not have you simply ignore them.  What I like about this book is that it tells you the different avenues people use to sort out their feelings.  However, it then gives you a better method that you can try at home.  The method is simply by listing the events that upset you and then the emotion you felt afterward.  I also like that this book looks at emotions as healthy and has the reader focus on "original virtue" instead of original sin.  Basically., the reader is asked to focus on the good within them and their life instead of the negative things.  If you suffer from emotional distress, then this book might be worth looking at.  It's short and too the point so you'll get through it quickly.
