5.0 out of 5 stars It really does have everything you wish you'd learned in school, 23 Oct 2007
This book talks primarily about life, and how to live it. Split into five sections, it gradually opens one's mind to the thought that you can have a better life, then tells you how to make your own life just generally *better*.

It discusses subjects such as how to forgive someone, raising your self-esteem, how to get the things you want, etc, with lots of practical tips. Unlike most "self-help" books, this one tells you not only what you can fix, but also *how to fix it*.

I found a great deal of wealth in the pages of this book, and I'm definitely better off since I started reading it. It's like having your very own therapist that you can take into the bath with you. Reading through it, I discovered many things about myself that I just took for granted, but that could have been much better. And now they *are* much better, thanks to the author.

I can't recommend this book highly enough for anyone who is dissatisfied with the way their life is lived.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best book to get you started in understanding life., 26 May 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Life 101 (Hardcover)
As a therapist I have many clients who I recommend to this book to help them understand some of the simple things about life that should be taught in schools. If our school system was to take a lead in showing children some of the basic lesson that are spelled out in this book in an open and humourous way I know that there would be a lot more contended people in the world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pure wisdom in a nutshell, 4 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Life 101 (Hardcover)
I've received a great boost of enegy and encouragement from delving into the soul of this witty writer. His dealings with omniscient human problems are easy to grasp and can be assimilated in ones own experience. If anything, you'll experience a work of true compassion laced with invaluable lessons learnt by hard earned experience. McWilliams is an authentic teacher who disseminates what he truly believes. No hypocrisy here. His sharing of his life experience reveals a strong belief in important values such as sharing, loving oneself and meditation. Money is also discussed and treated as it should be - philosophically and honestly. Obviously, beneath the veneer of this well written, work- of- art -self- help book, lies the portrayel of a true lover of humanity.
