Butler, Gillian Managing Your Mind: The Mental Fitness Guide
Oxford Univ Pr September 1, 19 0-19-262383-4 / 9780192623836 Paperback Very Good
Self-help and personal betterment tomes are often so earnest and so zealous to help everybody have a perfect life that they are off-putting to readers who merely want some advice. Butler and Hope's low-key compendium of menta l self-help is refreshingly free of such obsessiveness. Bright, readable, a nd insightful, it offers modest goals that are bracingly achievable by mean s of "skills, understanding, and strategies to suit your circumstances and inclinations." This may sound foggy or indefinite, but it is positively pre cise and reasonable for works in this genre. Butler and Hope present proble ms in broad contexts, indicated by such chapter titles as "Treating Yoursel f Right," "Good Eating Habits," and "Making Decisions." Then, drawing on th eir clinical experience, they dissect and illuminate specific complaints an d offer simple advice. Consider the resulting wide-ranging adviser a fitnes s book for the mind, rather like a Kathy Smith workout video for the sexies t, rather than the bounciest, part of your body. Mike Tribby
