Communication made simple...
This book was a very rare find for me. Something so short, yet contains so much wisdom. After reading "I Want to Tell You About My Feelings," I recommended it to many of my friends. As a psychologist in training, I have read it many times myself, especially when communications appear to be failing. This is one of few books I highly recommend.

i want to tell you my feelings about this book...
This book is really good reading! I think almost everyone can relate to the feeling of wanting to express your emotions and feeling like the person you are speaking to either doesn't understnad or doesn't care. Really this book reminds us how important it is to set aside our agenda to talk all the time and occasionally create time to LISTEN to others.

A great gift book
This is really an endearing book with whimsical illustrations. It has a simple and clear way of addressing a complicated topic. I could relate with many of the situations it addressed. I've given away five copies of the book already. It makes a great gift- a little book that carries a big message.

This Book Will Make You Laugh Like A Hyena
Don't read this book in a public place, because your laughter will be uncontrollable and everyone will stare. It is so corny and so ridiculous it really does resemble a hollywood autobio.

By far the funniest book I've ever read
The Naked Truth is more fiction than reality; nearly all of the details are admittedly false. While it does leave the reader longing to know the actual details of Nielsen's life, the non-stop hilarity quickly takes the focus off the obvious lies. I've read this probably about 5 times, and can keep picking it up every day and read a couple of pages and still laugh at the jokes. It is not only the intense comedic style that is amusing; rather, the fact that Nielsen weaves unthinkable tales of celebrity relationships (including his work with Fellini and Hitchcock, his gay relationship in Lawrence of Arabia, and his affairs with Brigette Bardot and Sharon Stone). If you thought Nielsen projected a straight-faced comedy style on the screen, his book will make you rethink the extreme ranges of his talent. Even though I'm a devoted Nielsen fan in the movies, with a book like this, I hope he'll start writing more instead of acting

Even for the non-golfer!
I don't play golf, but this little book is definitely worth reading. It kept me in stitches all the way through! I imagine that a golfer would even get more out of it than I did. I've given this book as a gift to several friends who do golf and they also give it an excellent rating. Lelsie Nielsen is at his best! Enjoy!

I'm not a golfer, but even I found this book funny.
This is really an instruction manual on how to play golf. I can bet you've never seen golf played this way before!

The pictures are great, and the explanations are truly hilarious. Recommended for every golfer with a good sense of humor.

Make a "Magic Move," and Get This Book
Leslie Nielson, the king of slapstick comedy, has come out with one of the funniest books that I have ever read. BAD GOLF MY WAY is one of the greatest golf instructional books ever written for the masses...well, minus those 2450 people who actually wish to improve their game.

This book is hysterical and the illustrated pictures are a riot. In this instructional book, Nielson pokes fun at golf by sharing his views and unorthodox approach to the game. His off-the-wall swing and mental aspects are hilarious. He truly is the "Arnold Palmer of Bad Golf."

This book will make you laugh out loud. It is a very quick read, and one of pure enjoyment. This is a must for any golfer. BAD GOLF MY WAY is a hole in one.

Too funny to adequately describe.
A spoof on the typical golf instruction book, this book is organized by chapters such as "The Address" and "The Swing." Here the similarities between other "instructional books" and this one end.My wife hated me while I was reading this book because the shaking bed due to my laughter kept her awake night after night. This and "Missing Links" by Rick Reilly are clearly the funniest golf books in print.

Michigan Butterflies and Skippers
Very well done! The photos are excellent and clear. The information is concise and well written. 'Mo' Nielsen is well-respected in the field of Lepidoptera and has produced a publication worthy of his reputation. The only fault in editing I have found is a photo of a living butterfly misidentified as Edward's Hairstreak (it is actually the very similar Banded Hairstreak). A long-awaited work!

Fabulous!
This book can definitely help the Michigan collector find and identify butterflies. Pictures of both the front and back of the butterfly are show for each species, and interesting variations (differences in male and female, hybrids) are shown as well. In addition, a map of the state divided into counties accompanies each butterfly, so you can figure out where that butterfly can be found. Finally, notes are given about the rarity of the butterfly--some have been recorded in Michigan only once, and others are considered strays. The great details given in this book have helped us correctly identify many butterflies that a more general guide to butterflies couldn't help us with. This book sets a high standard for all regional books on butterflies!
