Review: A very shallow book, not worth the read

I'm always reluctant to write a bad review because of the work that all books require to write, but this one was pretty bad, in my view.I thought it was a cheezy kind of book on self actualization, and the characteristics of self-actualized people, written by an author who seemed a bit too full of himself or his ideas.Worse yet, the book didn't really say much on how to become self-actualized, so it was mostly pages of descriptions that went nowhere. Thank heavens I bought it on a free day. I would not recommend this book to anyone.Instead, I would recommend that people who want to know more about self-actualization (and Maslow's hierarchy) readAdrift: Seventy-six Days Lost at Sea, which is a wonderful true story that makes a beautiful point (from stressful experience) that Maslow's hierarchy actually might be better upside down, with self-actualization at the bottom, not the top.
