Wishcraft: How to Get What You Really Want
- Book Review,
by Barbara Sher
Review
“One of the most popular books among those who want their lives to count for something. Barbara Sher is to be commended, for making hope practical.”
—RICHARD NELSON BOLLES
Author of What Color Is Your Parachute?
“COMPREHENSIVE AND INVITING . . . EMINENTLY PRACTICAL.”
—San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle
“A sprightly, sensible book brimming with advice, suggestions, and examples.”
—Pittsburgh Press
“One of the saddest lines in the world is, ‘Oh come now—be realistic.’ The best parts of this world were not fashioned by those who were realistic. They were fashioned by those who dared to look hard at their wishes and gave them horses to ride. . . . I’ve got about four copies of Wishcraft. It has been very popular. . . . I have now included it in Parachute!”
—RICHARD NELSON BOLLES
Author of What Color Is Your Parachute?
“The most irreverent and refreshing self-help manual now on the market . . . Feisty, funny, and down-to-earth, this book is bound to benefit all those
who sense they may have temporarily lost track of their true goals.”
—New Age Magazine
“Wise, compassionate, and pragmatic. Written by an expert for people of all ages who seriously want that something in life.”
—THEODORE ISAAC RUBIN, M.D.
“Can really be of help . . . A most useful and enlightening book.”
—The Houston Post
“What makes Sher’s philosophy strikingly different from other authors is her compelling belief that ‘There is no strategic problem that cannot be solved’ . . . Comprehensive and inviting. . . . Eminently practical.”
—San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle
