Interviewing Myself
by
Book Cover & Preview Text
Sanity begins and ends with how you communicate with yourself. Professor Eisenberg, after sixty years of teaching college students how to communicate, decided to take a deep look into his own mind. Convinced that the most accessible portal of entry to his attitudes, values, and beliefs can be had by asking himself the questions in this book, he invites the reader to compare the answers he gives himself with their answers.
The book is a perfect companion for those with little patience, a short attention span, and an open mind. If approached with honesty, it can jump-start the most lethargic brain.

About the Book
Since I have lived my entire adult life asking people questions, in 2013, I did a 360-degree turnabout and decided to ask myself questions. Readers interested in knowing what makes my mind tic should compare their answers with mine. The experience could be a revelation.
When I came home from school as a teenager, my father would say, “Did you ask a good question today?” He convinced me that a good question outweighs most answers. Good questions invigorate lazy minds and pique the imagination.
Unlike the traditional novel, this book requires little patience, accommodates a short attention span, and challenges the reader’s open-mindedness. Its brevity also makes it less intimidating.
My hope is that readers will discover some of their hidden attitudes, values, and beliefs. Sharing them with others will make the experience doubly enjoyable.
