Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Power Points for Success
Bob Harrison · 1996
62/100
👎 Skip It
Bob Harrison's anecdote-driven success collection is readable and accessible — short stories drawn from real lives, easy to pick up for a few minutes at a time. But the explicit Christian framing narrows the audience considerably, the strategies carry no academic or clinical weight, and the 1996 vintage means many cultural references have dated. Faith readers who enjoy this genre will find it pleasant; for general audiences or anyone wanting evidence-based guidance, there are stronger choices.
