This book really made me think about the way I was living my life. You really have to read the book for yourself to see what I mean. The authors style of writing is light hearted and easy to understand whilst still being informative and thought provoking. A small book but an excellent read, I'm certainly going to buy more of his work, Top man

This book is great, mixing in new philosophies with my existing beliefs and ideology it manages to reinforce deep down personal assesment and self understanding. I recommend this book to anyone that needs a new mind, read it and you'll soon realise what life can be about and what stance you should take towards emotions.

How important is this book? Well it changed my view of the world and how I react to it. It clearly showed me that my anger and frustrations were of no harm to anybody but me. Well they may have had nagative affects on other people but the main loser was myself. It's not easy to change yourself but the first step is recognise that there is another better way. I'm now a better happier person and if that is not worth the price of this book I don't know what is.
