It will change your outlook and your relationship with difficult people, especially those whom you cannot divorce or delete.

It has some pretty good adviceBasically is book about advice to act in certain situations. I like it you will probably like it too

Good tips and reminders. Nothing really new here, but always good reminders in dealing with people in general. It does have a perspective from all points of view.

Daughter loved this book

Wasn’t helpful. Had the basic info but nothing that was detailed. A lot of “be patient, self reflect, listen to your porcupine, etc.”Short read. But not detailed. Very basic.

Good book, easy read

I enjoyed reading this book. I learned some things about myself and better ways to address behaviors before they become hurricanes. However, I don't necessarily think most of these tips would work on extremely difficult people.
