Re the book on shyness and the one on "Clear Speech"

I found the condition of both books excellent. The second was particularly relevant to what I was doing, although I did get some ideas from the first. I needed the books urgently and they were out of print in Australia, so I cheerfully bore the cost of the exchange rate and shipping. The books arived in good time. Patricia Bryan Dip.

A Powerfully Simple Approach to Shyness

I've suffered from social anxiety for years, and have found many ways to avoid it. My therapist recommended this book, and I have found it to be insightful, direct, and immediately helpful. As with most books that deal with social anxiety, your progress towards alleviating that anxiety is really dependent upon the work that you are willing to do to complete the exercises that are outlined in the book. I'm just getting started myself, but already I have a more hopeful outlook on being able to just be myself and accept what happens as I put myself "out there" in engaging in social situations. I hope you find this book just as motivational.
