FROM THE INTRODUCTION: Advice comes in many forms, but that is not to say that it cannot be classified. Over the years, of all the practical advice I have received, the most appealing were those that conveyed a symbolic message. Needless to say, examples of this specific type were scarce. I almost felt like I needed to hallucinate to see any fragment of a system within the advice I was receiving. I looked for logic, and found materials. I looked for leitmotifs, and found grunge and working processes. All in all it was very unsatisfying, until I found some common connections amongst the different types of advice. This book expresses the knowledge, both abstract and practical, that came out of that discovery.
