About this title

Synopsis

Bunkhouse Logic is a serious self-help book using as its central metaphor the life of the cowboy and his behaviour as the leaves his bunkhouse. Based upon a lifetime of observation of the successful and how they got that way, Ben Stein suggests that you imitate the determination, inner mobility, activity, flexibility, and the refusal to indulge in self-pity, of the cowboy in order to get what you want out of life.
