Will Neil Burman be the next Dr Phil?

New Products

Australasian Dental Practice's resident humourist, noted dentist and prolific author, Dr Neil Burman, has released a new amusing tome entitled Bonfire in the Vanity.


Styled as the ultimate self-help book, Bonfire in the Vanity, co-authored with Steve Benson, can be translated into over 20 languages and is based heavily on the teachings of Austrian philosopher, guru, tax exile and Man of Letters, Professor Ernst Trubelmacher (his surname contains at least twelve).

According to the jacket, Bonfire in the Vanity provides everything necessary for you to lead a happy and rewarding life (Well, at least happier than those around you!).

The co-authors apparently spent several months thinking about researching the vital information contained within their book and Australian television vet Dr Harry has compared their writings to that of American television psychologist Dr Phil (Dr Phil has compared them to the writings of Dr Harry's dog).

Chapters elaborate on The Power of Negative Thinking; The Path to Enlightenment; Dealing with Depression; Wealth Creation; Workplace Survival; Sex and/or Happiness; Relationships; Ageing - Prepare to Meet thy Gloom; Eat Drink and be Merry for Tomorrow you Diet; Fit for Life; Survival in the Home; Alternative Therapies;The Twig List; and Death, Where is thy Thing?

Bonfire in the Vanity is a must for everyone according to nobody in particular.
