Very few people are experts in their own nature; it's a minority interest. Plenty of people are interested in money, sex, fame, power, sensual indulgences, but self-knowledge is a rare thing indeed. Even so-called spiritual traditions focus on dogma and external practices such as mindfulness. This book is about you and the world you live in. It isn't pretty. There is no happy ever after story here, and no easy answers. As such, the contents of this book will always be a minority interest.
This book gives an extraordinary clarity about essential principles of life, so much needed in this complex and confusing world. It covers many aspects of life to find specific answers. It definitely works for me to find more peace looking at life with the smile and amusement.
Martin’s book is a case in point. Not that the book isn’t satisfying reading, it is enjoyable and thought provoking. Read it or don’t read it - I really don’t care.
The content of the book is fine and interesting though it is nothing groundbreaking or new, but the book is very repetitive and full of formatting errors and typos. The structure of the book itself is poorly thought out to the point it feels more like a collection of essays than a coherent book.
a refreshingly honest viewpoint of life and death !
Following on from his first book, this is another great work unpicking the aspects of reality as we perceive it. An Inspection with all its forms and deceptions afoot. Great job Martin.
