...Great Enterprise, the self-help school is back in session. Even sleepy students will recognize the first half of the book as a rehash of The Mature Mind. Entitled "Equipment for Maturing," it might be subtitled "First Aid for the Ego." Twisted into neurotic shapes by parents, bosses and competitive tensions, the modern ego is forever ailing, Overstreet suggests. The big trouble is that modern man is in an introspective rut.
