I've also explored the RR website and Jack's persoanl website. Any help?
I'd be interested in more info on Jack himself, too. I am reading Rational Recovery and while I am agreeing with the methods, I get an odd squishy feeling from some of the commentary. Jack sometimes comes across as a bit of an extremist himself. For example some of the suggested "dos and don'ts" come across kinda like Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory. Which is not to say that they aren't true!
