Finally, an author after my own heart. In Bright-sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America
, Barbara Ehrenreich covers all matters from cancer to the economy. It may sound somewhat depressing, but she does not, as one may assume, promote negative thinking. She urges individuals to gather as much information as possible before forming a concrete opinion and to take a realistic approach to life decisions. In short, look on the bright side and you may be blind sided.
