About this title

From the Author

I am an expert on this subject. I was born in the South, the South Bronx. I didn't start talking until I was four years old, couldn't blow my nose till five. I never won any special award for anything. I was a plugger in school and just kept plugging. Eventually, I landed up at Harvard Law School where I was one of the students that made the top half of the class possible. After finishing Harvard, I worked as a lawyer, teacher and wrote. My books include, How to Conduct Your Own Divorce in England and Wales, How to Buy and Sell a Used Car in Europe, A Dictionary of Love, and my long awaited, How to be Totally Unhappy in a Peaceful World, which tells how I have accomplished this goal and shows you how you can do it too.

From the Back Cover

What the critics are saying: My mother: "Isn't about time you took a regular job?" My "Ex": I knew you'd be an expert on unhappiness because that is what you made my life for so many years." My college age daughter: "It's okay. Could you please send me $200?" My father: "So this is what you went to Harvard Law School for?" What readers are saying:

"Before reading your book, I used to feel that my problems were due to my lack of initiative and inability to get out of bed in the morning. After reading your book, I realize that my problems are all due to my parents, my spouse, bad luck and God. What a relief." -Janet Hodgepodge, Kookamoo, IN

"Your book has been an inspiration to me. I will not need to buy another self-help book. You cured me. I'm misreable and I love it. -Jim Cantwin, Nowhere, AZ
