Review:

I Never Knew I Had A Choice (now in its sixth edition) is designed to help readers expand their self-awareness as they explore the significant choices available to them in the various dimensions of life, including: work and leisure, wellness and lifestyle, stress and coping, sex roles and sexuality, love and intimate relationships, loneliness and solitudes, death and loss, meaning and values. As readers work through the self inventories, exercises,and activities (reading the first-person accounts of the choices real people have made in response to challenging life events) they will begin to explore themselves, their lives, their attitudes, and their beliefs. I Never Knew I Had A Choice is a splendid addition to any personal or public self-help book collection. -- Midwest Book Review
