I really enjoyed this book - easy to read, wonderful photographs and some wonderfully inspirational quotes. This is the first time I have looked into a book on Buddhism, and I am very glad I did. thank you for the gentle introduction.
I won this book in a Goodreads first-reads contest.
Though an interesting overview about getting motivated to meditate, I would've appreciated more information about how to get started meditating with some exercises to guide a person through meditation.
As advertised, this is quick and easy. Not to be used for any kind of in-depth study of Buddhism, but is useful as a nicer booster during stressful times.
