I have occasionally thought, while reading, that my time would have been better spent on another non-fiction book about the middle ages, but eventually liked the way human and ‘small' events came to focus together with ‘big' historical events.

Need to get around some sexism, some platitudes, some classism, and some entitled nonsense, but I liked the ‘taxonomy' of sources of unhappiness. Light on the solutions... but let's be fair, was I really expecting to find a recipe for happiness in this book?

I have read many self-help books now. Like the others, this one has its share of oversimplifications and platitudes, but I've concluded that if I can learn one thing from each of these books, I will be satisfied. Psycho-Cybernetics passes that bar.

Series of lectures. 2, 4, and 5 were the most interesting to me.
