The author, Dr. Peck, says it like it is. The most helpful idea he presents is that we as adults have to become dedicated to reality. This is not easy. We all have some kind of bias. We all distort reality. We all are excellent at self deceit, which is why dedication to reality is difficult and most important. Far too many people are closed minded. Dr. Peck says we need to be mapmakers. The terrain of life changes all the time. Instead of putting Gideon Bibles in motel rooms, they need to put this book.

Although this book was written in the 70's, much of the content is just as applicable today. Easy to read, it will challenge a lot of your conceptions about yourself and others. Highly recommend.
