Effective communication is a critical skill that influences your professional success, the stability of your family life, and your personal happiness.

If you've ever felt paralyzed by an imposing individual or strongly argued opposing point of view, you know that a lack of assertiveness can leave you feeling marginalized and powerless. The Assertiveness Workbook contains effective, cognitive behavioral techniques to help you become more assertive. Learn how to set and maintain personal boundaries without becoming inaccessible. Become more genuine and open in relationships without fearing attack. Defend yourself when you are criticized or asked to submit to unreasonable requests.

Want to be miserable? It isn't as difficult as it sounds, and chances are, you're already doing it! Studies show that repeating specific behaviors can actually increase feelings of dissatisfaction, foster a lack of motivation, and detract from your quality of life. In How to Be Miserable, psychologist Randy Paterson outlines 40 specific behaviors and habits, which--if followed--are sure to lead to a lifetime of unhappiness. On the other hand, if you do the opposite, you may yet join the ranks of happy people everywhere.
Following in the footsteps of his snarky self-help hit, How to Be Miserable.
