Synopsis
Talk radio hostess Dr. Laura offers some of the same advice that has made her one of the most popular broadcasters on the air today: take responsibility for your own life, take pride in yourself, and conduct your daily affairs with forthright honesty. Speaking with the same pull-no-punches frankness that powered her "Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives" to the top of the NY Times bestseller list, the author presents a workable moral philosophy in a voice that is both engaging and uncompromising in its honesty.

Publisher's Note
Following her phenomenal New York Times bestseller, Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives, Dr. Laura Schlessinger delivers a witty, wise and workable moral philosophy based on the principle of personal responsibility in her hard-hitting new book. How Could You Do That?! argues passionately against the self-indulgent, subjective morality used in our society to excuse all sorts of bad behavior. In her lively, pull-no-punches style, Laura Schlessinger takes on the moral dilemmas of our time, from the mindless pursuit of pleasure and immediate gratification to taking the easy way out when those actions produce ugly or uncomfortable life-altering consequences. She demonstrates in no uncertain terms that personal values are never someone elses responsibility, but our own, and why choosing not to honor them actually compounds unhappiness. Finally, she explains that by disciplining self-indulgence and rising above temptation we can discover the infinite pleasures -- the true happiness -- of the moral high ground. Prominently featuring Schlessinger's spirited, touching and profound moral discussions with callers on her top-rated internationally syndicated radio program, How Could You Do That?! is not only a compelling argument for an ethical approach to life, but an invaluable inspiration to rebuilding conscience, character and courage. Now in paperback--Dr. Laura Schlessinger's potent prescription against the epidemic that's killing America's ethics and values. A wise and witty book that topples the lame excuses we invent when we do the wrong thing, "How Could You Do That?!" challenges readers to find their Character, Conscience, Courage, Self-respect, Morals, Integrity, and Principles by discussing such issues as love versus lust, irresponsible parenting, and the mindless pursuit of happiness at the expense of others.
Industry reviews
"...as she demonstrates time and again in this volume Schlessinger likes telling people off, often berating callers--nicely of course--for committing or condoning selfish, unprincipled acts or simply for professing confusion (which Schlessinger regards as an excuse for inaction)." Los Angeles Times Book Review - Chris Goodrich (04/21/1996)
