3. Summary
Stephen R. Covey's book,
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People®, has been
a top-seller for the simple reason that it ignores
trends and pop psychology for proven
principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and
human dignity. Celebrating its fifteenth year of
helping people solve personal and professional
problems, this special anniversary edition
includes a new foreword and afterword written
by Covey exploring the question of whether the
7 Habits are still relevant and answering some
of the most common questions he has received
over the past 15 years.
