Reviews

[Jared Trueheart · Rating 2 out of 5]

I heard the author speak in an interview. He was inspiring. I bought the book but found nothing useful in it. It was very repetitious. Had a lot of sentences but didn't say much.

[Ben · Rating 2 out of 5]

I enjoyed the practical ideas in chapter 11 ("Healthy Habits and Healthy Environments") and in the Conclusion chapter. Otherwise, this book was overly generalized and quite repetitive.
