Core idea
Social skill can be built through daily, progressive training, much like fitness; the greatest obstacle is one's own preconceptions, and action is the only way to break through them.
Review
A structured behavioral training manual whose techniques for overcoming social anxiety still have practical value today, but its goals remain oriented around "approach outcomes" rather than healthy relationships.
