Summary: The 60-Second Shrink
Comment: The 60-Second Shrink: 101 Strategies For Staying Sane in a Crazy World is a small volume jam-packed with mental health tips. It's a useful book, read from cover-to-cover, but the authors designed it for browsing. Simply flip through the pages until you find the specific information you need.

Arnold A. Lazarus, Ph.D. is an internationally-renowned psychologist, who has published several books and hundreds of articles, and has been honored as "one of the ten most influential psychotherapists of our time." His son, Clifford N. Lazarus, Ph.D. has also published books and articles, as well as maintained an active consulting practice. The two doctors participated in a radio talk show named Mental Health Matters, and drew much of the material in their current book from that show.

Because of that, the material is presented in easy-to-understand terms and emphasizes the practical aspects of achieving good mental health.

Drs. Lazarus divided the book into several main sections with titles like: Strategies for Staying Sane, Building Successful Relationships, Communicating Effectively, and Dealing with Depression, Anger and Moods. Each section is further divided into chapters.

The chapters are succinct, rarely more than a page or two long. Each starts with a real-life example, followed by an explanation of why the situation in the example occurs. Tips for overcoming each type of situation are shown in bold-face type, making them easy to find.

While some people may need long-term therapy, the doctors believe that many people simply need help in finding solutions to mental health problems. They concentrate on providing "solution-based therapy" that includes practical techniques and ways to incorporate those techniques in your daily life. Readers will find The 60-Second Shrink full of good advice on how to keep daily life from driving them crazy.
