Summary: Don't be confused by the title!
Comment: This is not a self-help book! A friend gave me this book several years ago. I have no background in psychology, behavioural science or sociology but this book gave me a framework in which to ponder and discuss the behaviour of people such as Mother Theresa and the person next door. I think Sophie's Choice did the same thing in relation to philosophy. I have recommended it to many of my friends and colleagues since. There is a lot of anxiety born of confusion in the world because people aren't able to analyse or comprehend their own and other people's behaviour. Dorothy discusses this in terms of a perpetual wanting of more and an inability to recognise it in ourselves. Well done Dorothy!

Summary: Or, how we can save the planet.
Comment: This is probably Dr. Rowe's most personal and political book - but as she says, life is political. It's interesting to me that having read this book years ago, and then witnessed the more recent publishing success of the "emotional intelligence" genre in the U.S. that Dr. Rowe missed out on the kudos, because she has been writing about the two kinds of intelligence for years. "Wanting Everything" is once again full of Dr. Rowe's prodigious insight and wisdom and if it were taken to heart, it just might save the planet.
