Don't Let Jerks Get the Best of YouThe driver who pulls out in front of you in traffic. The intimidating boss who chews you out for every mistake. Parents or in-laws who manipulate you through your children. We are all jerks in one degree or another, says Dr. Paul Meier--we all tend to be selfish or take advantage at times, without meaning any harm, of course. Dr. Meier combines years of counseling with a light-hearted look at his own life in this handbook on human relationships. --provided by publisher. |
