self help - The Gift of Sensitivity

Nonfiction is one of my least-read genres and I often prefer to read this in audio format. I didn't love the opening pages all being "Praise For" and usually skip this as a reader. The table of contents is a key spot I review when determining to read a nonfiction book, and I really like how not only does the author list out the chapter headings but also a quick sentence about the content of each. I find that super helpful. I found it very peculiar that the first impression jumped to chapter 4 instead of starting with chapter 1. The writing style of this work felt more like a text book than an easy-to-digest everyday self-help book. It felt like work to read and comprehend it, which I didn't love.
