The Lost Art of Listening
I see how he wrote this. He came up with the idea of a book, and he jotted down notes between counselling sessions and meetings until he'd filled an exercise book. Then he grouped them loosely into themes and wrote the book.
The result is a bundle of platitudes, anecdotes, and advice which have no connection beyond their overall topic. He would have been better to write a collection of short essays rather than feign a linear narrative out of them. Definitely some useful thoughts in there, but presented in this way it's more like sitting on the knee of an old man who talks sagely but tangentially. You're left to gather the wisdom and piece it together yourself.
