Summary: pithy content, sloppy style
Review: I have read two of this fellow's books, including this one, and I found myself wading through the unrelated, and sometimes contrived, soundbytes. I do believe that even a bad book has one or two "good bits" in it, and for that reason perhaps I can be excused for attempting the second book after being disappointed the first time. Plus, it came to me as a book club offering, so I assumed/hoped it would be okay. I could find no thread that lasted more than a couple of sentences and none of them seemed really connected with any other or with any theme as such. I don't object to pithy, clever phrases, perse. They're useful hooks and devices to help us retain our focus out there in a negative world. A book of pithy sayings is one thing, but a book which does not call itself such but which is full of barely anything else is quite another thing, and much less good. The style comes across to me like the thing was thrown together in a very short while, a bit like someone dictated into a tape recorder and then had it typed up, but worse because there is no conversational style to speak of.
In a word I would call this book "insubstantial". If you liked Stephen Covey's "7 Habits" book, and you're anything like me, this book will not be less than adequate.
