This book goes steps further in elucidating the art of friendship. One learns the nature of attachments their importance their roadblocks and the practical know how to be an excellent friend and attract friendship. Shumway covers all the nuts and bolts and pertinent theories. It is well written and fun to read. I have recommended it to a number of my clients. - Amazon ReviewI read your book twice and liked it. Lots of good points and very easy to read. Not my preferred text style (I am more on the Lewis\/Alberoni slightly more academic and a few more literary references) but I can see how literally everyone can pick it up and actually get what you mean. On the other hand unlike so many of the contemporary American ?friendship? books it is written with the heart in the right spot I.e. how to be better oneself at friendship \/ being a friend and it has lots of practical advice. You really love being a good friend and want to share that. Not make a fancy superficial business out of it like all the ?Don?t be lonely? books. So love it.  - C.L.\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaperback:\u003c\/b\u003e 171 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kyler Shumway (October 16 2018)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692035443\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 978-0692035443\u003c\/p\u003e                                                                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e    Product Dimensions:     \u003c\/b\u003e    6 x 0.4 x 9 inches    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.6 ounces \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Communication \u0026 Social Skills","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":31805582901347,"sku":"692035443","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0291\/6296\/3043\/products\/4119ZGtxtcL.jpg?v=1576230577","url":"https:\/\/bookhigausopao.myshopify.com\/products\/friendship-formula-loneliness-discover-connection","provider":"BookHigauSopao","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
