Summary: Thought-provoking and life-changing.
Review: Not generally a fan of Dr. Laura, I have to concede this is a valuable book. It's premise that we allow ourselves to act immorally through denial is on-target and powerfully argued. This was the first book I read by Dr. Laura, and I thought it meandered somewhat (later finding most of her books do this to a certain degree). Nonetheless, you can benefit by bending your ear to her point of view. For a few-hundred pages at least.

Summary: Let she who is without sin cast the first stone......
Review: Oh Please! Enough with this self-appointed moral arbiter, already! Just when I begin to think that P.T. Barnum was wrong, along comes a dreck-dealer like Dr. Laura to prove P.T. right. This woman wants only YOUR MONEY. Her venom and hate are contributing to the "downfall of America," not the behaviors she condemns. If you're looking for moral answers, try asking your minister, priest, rabbi, or other pastoral counselor for help. Try actually reading the Bible, Torah, Koran, or the sacred literature of your choice. Follow the Golden Rule. And think for yourself. I would give this book ZERO stars if that were a choice.....

Summary: Will the Boomers ever go away?
Review: Once again a 'reformed' baby-boomer has stepped up to the mike to tell the rest of us she was wrong all along. Give me a break. I suppose it's OK for an entire generation to smoke, drink, and fornicate through their twenties and then blame their children for the state of society. Let us learn our own lessons, Doc. You had your chance.

Summary: How Could You Buy This Stupid Book?
Review: Ranting and raving is annoying on a radio, but it's REALLY ANNOYING in abook. This is junk food, bad for you and untasty and cold before you get it out of the wrapper. If anyone learns anything from this, it is that this woman knows nothing and needs for the whole world to know it.
Rating: 
Summary: A book every wayward American should read
Review: She uses examples from her show to get the points of the book across. There is no BS. She is very straightforward. This is the best self help book I have read and what's more the author has signed it!!!
Thank you Dr. Laura

Summary: You Go, Girl !!!
Review: Thanks Dr. Laura for standing tall in the midst of immorality. Thanks, too, for putting Pop Psych. in it's place. I've always heard that evil can only prevail when good men (and women) do nothing. Thanks for doing something as opposed to writing critical comments on the internet and having done nothing. You are a beautiful person. A MUST READ!!! And, oh by the way, I'm my kid's dad!

Summary: Laura talks better than she writes
Review: The best parts of this book are the the transcripts from the radio show. Why? Because when Dr. Schlessinger is behind the mike, she's focussed, clear, chatty, and intriguing. But her writing hits the page with a thud. There's simply no life in it. Her topic is an interesting one, but this book does not succeed in making its point. I would be hard-put to find a reader who enjoyed the book who didn't already listen her show AND was a rabid fan. I'm not discussing whether or not I agree with her position, but how she communicated it. I suspect that she's trying to write a book that has already been written, and she fails in comparison. Spend your money on M. Scott Peck's _People of the Lie_ instead, and listen to the Dr. Laura radio show for the same information. There really isn't anything in the book that she hasn't covered in the show. I read her first book as well and was also disappointed in how poorly the writing compares to her on-air style.

Summary: OK
Review: The book was common sense and OK. Have you heard her talk show? I used to like her but don't care to listen to her anymore. There is no need to be rude and hang up or put a caller down. There are better ways of handling things and she does not do well! Some of her values are fine yet others I do not agree with. She acts as if she is perfect and I am sure she has made several mistakes in her life! She is a waste of air time!
Rating:
Summary: This book was outstanding.
Review: This book clearly spelled out why character is so important and how easily we have lost/given up this part of ourselves. This book put me on the clear track to understanding that its not okay to take immediate gratification without thought of the consequences or a total disregard for others.
Rating:
Summary: Fantastic! Right on the money.
Review: This book is a must read for those who care about character, integrity, and family values. It puts into words those things that almost every American already believes about what really brings happiness. It also exposes the twisted, foundationless logic used to justify the cowardly "open minded" liberal agenda. Way to speak the truth, Dr. Laura!
