Sometimes it seems quite difficult to know how to act in certain situations. Sometimes we always behave in the same way without any consideration as to how the people around us will perceive that behaviour and how they will respond.Reading Six Action Shoes will not instantly change the way that you behave, but will make you more conscious of your behaviour and that of the people around you.
Six different modes of action are characterised by six different colours and types of shoes (e.g. navy formal shoes when actions should follow formal set routines, pink slippers for when actions should be directed towards human values).
Each type of shoe is discussed in a separate section, with each section consisting of a number of short (one or two page) chapters. The structure of the book makes it ideal for reading in short bursts, allowing time to think about what has been read before picking it up again.
It is disappointing to note that a book by such a distinguished author, published by a publishing house such as Harper Collins should contain as many typographical errors as this one does. In his notes at the beginning of the book, Dr. de Bono tells how the whole book was written, using a Psion mobile computer, on aeroplane journey from London to Auckland. There is a commentary in the text that gives progress on the journey. It seems that no one bothered to proof read the text after typesetting. It is not surprising that most of the errors are seen towards the end of the book.
Despite the typesetting errors, Six Action Shoes is well worth the two and a half hours it takes to read. This is a book that I will definitely read again.
A book that makes you think about how your actions.
"Whether you want to track down a particular manufacturer or are simply looking for shoes that will caress your feet, How to Find the Shoes You Want is an excellent resource."- Mary Gottschalk, Style Writer for the San Jose Mercury News.. 
This book is very helpful to those clinicians who want to evaluate and fabricate foot orthotics in the office. Easy to read and follow. The author must be very good...
