The textbook of assertive living
Although somewhat dated to those in the field, Your Perfect Right is great, user-friendly beginners info on how to claim your rights as an effective, assertive individual. I have recommended it to clients many times. I would follow it up with "Where To Draw The Line" by Anne Katherine and/or any of the Harriet Lerner books.

Cultivating the attitude of gratitude
I have been reading up on the topic of gratitude since reading a newspaper account of Professor Emmon's research on the topic. I have now studied this recent book on the topic and taken extensive notes. While the issue has always struck me as very important, I didn't realise the empirical support for the topic. Work conducted by Professor Emmons and his colleagues has provided important evidence ...
