Transitions: Making Sense of Life’s Changes
I did have to buy this book for a class and I view it as a total waste. It is just another self help book…if you wish to stray away from the reality of life and have something to blame your problems on this is the book for you.

I’ve read many books on undergoing significant life changes and this one was the poorest. I was misled that his PhD was in psychology or another related area. It’s probably in English or other. He refers to Alice in Wonderland, TS Eliot, Zen and others who aren’t part of behavior science. Comforting? No. Enlightening? In an obtuse approach, other self help books are far better. His writing style is removed from the subject and doesn’t really cover all that is involved in a life transition.

This book was okay, but it basicaly gave me no real information on dealing with transitions. I thought it would be much more in depth than it was and came from it, not too impressed. I think a little more effort into the book and could of been really good.

I RECEIVED THE BOOK SO FAST YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS HAND DELIVERED FROM AROUND THE CORNER
Rating: 5 / 5
even though I first read it in 1987 to help me move consciously through a transition (which has never really ended). I find myself in such a transition moment now, and this book still speaks to my needs, it still makes sense of personal transitions as the blessings they can be for those who can sit with the experience.
