So far I have really liked everything from this author. He seems to be the kind of wise, benevolent but no nonsense presence I need in my life. I found it also reassuring that I instinctively used some of the techniques he suggested.
A good read for anyone who needs a bit of guidance and hope.

It's a good book overall, but I would have liked elaborate stories from our mythologies to drive the point home
