Publisher Description

Here's an approach that can make a genuine difference in the quality of your life and in the lives of those you love. Dr. Laura Schlessinger delivers a witty, wise, and workable moral philosophy based on the principle of personal responsibility. With a lively, pull-no-punches style, she takes on the moral dilemmas of our time, and demonstrates in no uncertain terms that personal values are always our own responsibility, and that choosing not to honor them actually compounds unhappiness. Finally, she explains that by disciplining self-indulgence and rising above temptation, we can discover the infinite pleasure, the true happiness, of the moral high ground.

"Nothing much new if you've always done the right thing with advice that treats values as absolute rather than relative. Simple as that. But towards the end it helped transform fuzzy feelings into sensible principles by articulating clearly what goes on in some lives. A call back to good character."

    " I love Dr. Laura's values. But I do not like her attitude! I disagree that people should wait until their 30's to get married, be engaged for a year, and so on. I also disagree with the fact that you shouldn't listen to your feelings - the spirit is our guide and we FEEL it!! "

    " Some people mess up and turn themselves around and make things right. Some people have no remorse and don't even get that they need to make things right. This book is hard-hitting, but much needed in this society of selfishness, irresponsibility, and "tolerance". "
