This book is different from others in one significant aspect - viz. even some one without a reading habit can read it and get some useful tips. Each topic is covered in short and simple capsules. Thus no reading from end to end is needed. Just look up at the topic of interest and read that. Simple, isn't it?
The author does not claim any originality of the content (and gives an extensive glossary at the end). However, the presenation is indeed unique and the author deserves full credit.
The topics covered are very useful for a young person fresh out of the school, trying to lead his / her own life, trying to be free of parental support or looking for advice from other independent / objective sources.
I would have loved to see health, food habits, ethical values also covered in addition to what have been dealth with (Communication skills, networking, investing etc.).
