This book is quite a bit different than other books I've read on happiness which usually include very practical, step-by-step advice.  However, I do find this book very useful because, in describing Self-Actualization, it helps clarify what makes for true, long-term happiness.I have previously read a bit about Self-Actualization here and there, but this book is a very good, concise but thorough guide to what it is, along with some suggestions on how to become a Self-Actualized person.Becoming Self-Actualized is a journey, and not something that happens instantly.  It is unlikely that anyone will finish this book and suddenly be completely Self-Actualized.  Instead they will have some ideas that they can apply to their lives and will hopefully be inspired to take an honest look at themselves - who they are and what they truly want - which should eventually lead to a more lasting experience of happiness.Overall, this is a very well-written book, and I am glad to have read it.
