I really like and recommend some of the theories and techniques suggested in this book

A really interesting book

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
This book has some good information, but as many "national bestsellers" it is written not by person stated as "author" but by "co-author".

It is filled with anecdotes of questionable relevance and significance. Book starts with some strong ideas, but goes into wishy-washy and street legends realm closer to the end.

The book is full of contradictions (as suggesting to challenging ideas from the top and then appealing to the authorities to prove some other point) and overpromises (such as you do some breathing, then mental projections and it will cure your traumas)

What is annoying is that book could have been at least twice shorter with some proper editing.
What is more annoying is that the book is not useless, but it is definitely not great either.

Fairly typical "bestseller", has good stuff

Amazing book, great take away points and lessons you can truly apply to your own life. What an inspiring writer - if everyone had the same determination as him, the world would be a very different place!
