[light wear to extremities, generally a clean tight copy]. Trade PB "A psychiatrist and a psychologist combine their wit and wisdom, and their long experience in helping others, to create and compile a collection of aphorisms such as you've rarely -- if ever -- read before!" (More cynically, one might put it this way: a psychiatrist and a psychologist team up with a small-time publisher to exploit a dubious tie-in with America's most popular comic strip.) Author #1, "Dr. Ben," explains in his introduction that he had once tried an experiment by building a booth along the lines of Lucy's stand in the "Peanuts" strip, and sitting behind it on the street for ten days, during which "people of all ages" stopped by, and the idea for a book was born. (Wonder what the royalty arrangement with Schulz was like) A few of these pithy sayings are snitched from time-honored sources (Martin Buber, the Talmud, etc.), and one is even credited to Schulz himself.
