Summary: After myself, I love Peter McWilliams!
Comment: This book is terrific. Conventional romantic ideals have led a lot of us down a lot of blind alleys and into unneccessary pain and disappointment. These ideas portray an attractive, attainable alternative. Thank you, Peter.

Summary: Teaches self-love and self-esteem, but deprecates marriage.
Comment: This book is excellent for persons who are unhappy and can't put their finger on why. It teaches you how to stop beating yourself up emotionally and create a "sanctuary" in your mind where you can explore how you want to feel, and what you want to be and do in life. The author is correct in pointing out that you should love yourself, because you are the only one who will always be there for yourself. I am a Christian, and I advise Christians to turn to Jesus once they've reached the limits of what this book can provide. Your faith will help you recognize what these limits are. Christians should remember that, since God and Jesus love you, you should be able to do the same. OK, back to the book. It correctly deprecates infatuation, which produces the notion that "love will always make everything all right" in many people. However, the book goes further, and implies that a successful marriage will only be based on one of several purely practical types of relationship, no love required. There is an entire chapter of quotes, mostly from entertainers, which belittle marriage and even recommend adultery! The possibility of a mature, mutual love developing within and constantly nurturing a marriage is not considered. I think many people can use this book. However, they need to take a hard look at which parts are beneficial for them and which are not.

Summary: Great Disappointment
Comment: I have recently purchased the tape series of Love 101 much to my disappointment. If you are looking for a little reinforcement and a different perspective on how to accomplish self-esteem, these are not the tapes for you. However, if you enjoy listening to introductions to clips of nostalgic music and comedy routines then you might want to give this a try. I found that the subject matter had little to do with self-esteem directly but more to do with announcing the next "ditty" ranging from Mae West to Al Jolson and Groucho Marx. I doubt if most of these routines and songs have seen the light of day since the big band era. These tapes were more of a trip down memory lane than a "boost" in one's self-esteem.
