Ako nežiť osamelo v modernom svete
Populárno-náučná publikácia z oblasti vzťahovej psychológie ponúka témy mentálneho tréningu, podpory kreativity, rozvoja komunikačných schopností na neverbálnej aj konkrétnej verbálnej úrovni a systematickosti vyhľadávania vzťahov.
Autor využíva 15-ročnú psychologickú prax i silu osobného príbehu, aby bez nadmerného užívania odborných termínov a presycovania čitateľa teóriami poukázal na spôsoby, akými sa možno jednoduchým mentálnym tréningom zbaviť napätia pri kontakte s novými ľuďmi, ako je možné vypracovať si zdravý režim pre záľuby vedúce k priateľským až romantickým kontaktom, a ako sa dá neverbálnou komunikáciou jednoducho ovplyvniť dojem, ktorý zanechávame.
Súčasťou knihy sú tiež cvičenia vedúce k prekonávaniu strachu a frustrácie z odmietnutia a zvyšovaniu spoločenskej odolnosti, ako aj humorné sociálne experimenty.
