An interesting list of Principles for life and a comprehensive list of South African resources are provided to facilitate access to professional help.A stunning, uplifting, and inspiring book, that is hugely comprehensive and impressive. It is impressively and clearly set out, with pertinent questions at the end of each section. It is easy to read with some very gut- wrenching and powerful chapters. I cannot see how anybody can walk away from it unmoved, and unchanged in their direction in life, at least to some extent. If the advice given is taken, many young people will lead productive, responsible, wholesome lives that will bring them true happiness.BRENDA GEORGEFreelance Editor, Pietermatrizburg, South AfricaThis book could not have come at a better time. It offers sound factual information, based on principles and values on which the young can base their choices, and enter adult life with a set of values that will endure and lead to true happiness.DR.
