Do you believe that self-help books work,or is it just an industry?

[John s]

If one has worked,what is the title/author?What did it do for you?

[macz]

it is just an industry. if the books did half of what they claimed, the industry would no longer have a demand. while there is positive advice which can be gotten from these books, it is more often than not general advice rather than for a particular situation.
