The book was written by Caroline Goyder and published by Sidwick & Jackson in 2009.
It is a very interesting book, covering all the situations which may cause us shyness, awkwardness of nerves -- situations like facing a room full of strangers, making a speech, going to an interview, talking to a gorgeous man or woman sitting across the bar!
The book is also quite original and fun, because it features collaborations and advice from celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Dame Helen Mirren, Ewan McGregor, Sarah Jessica Parker and countless others. Sometimes the advice is just a quotation, and sometimes it is a complete chapter on its own.
I think this is a lovely book, with practical and down-to-earth, doable advice.
Also, I must add that it is a very pretty edition, in light beige, thick paper, with fonts and design that make the book attractive, pleasant and easy to read!
I bought The Star Qualities from Sheffield, UK, two years ago, and it will always remind me of that nice city and the amazing Waterstones store in Orchard Square!
(Orchard Square is a quaint square in Sheffield, with a fantastic moving-figures clock).
Have a great weekend, always with beauty and a good book! xxx
