It seems that self-help books are topping best-seller lists more often these days. More people are turning to self-help books for advice on how to live their lives. Last year, sales of these books in the UK rose 20 percent, reaching a record high of 3 million, the Guardian reported.

Famous people or psychologists( 心理学家) wrote many of the self-help books. They teach you how to deal with problems in your life—for example, how to get along with your classmates, how to manage your time well and how to find happiness in your daily life.

But can these books really help us with our lives? People have lots of different opinions about this.

Julie Hall from London is a big fan of self-help books. After she read more than 300 of them, she set up her own self-help website. Her site helps women succeed in the business world. “They(self-help books) can give you the courage to do whatever you want to do,” she told the Independent.

However, recent research by the University of Montreal in Canada might not agree with that. Researchers surveyed two groups of people—one of the group had read many self-help books, while the other hadn’t. They found that people in the group who had read more self-help books have more stress.

There is no single “quick fix” that can make our lives better. However, it’s always good to know that help is at hand when we need it.
