Summary: A good book for the young...
Review: Not an easy reading but worth every second and all the effort that you put in it. This is a book about living, but it is about living in a way that sets you apart. It is about Life. Everything and anything that is life.. love, relationships, solving problems, dealing with pain, growing, religion, discipline and the challenges of doing all of that in our limited lifetimes. They're all things that we take for granted, they're all things that we usually 'do' without thinking about them. 'The Road Less Traveled' forces you to think about them in ways that you have not done before.

Scott Peck combines years of psychotherapy with a natural writing style that attracts the reader and challenges his/her mind. It is not the writing style that makes the book difficult reading, but the continuous challenge to you mind and to your preconceived ideas. Peck demands that you examine your mind, your feelings and your heart deeply and objectively. Most of us find that difficult.

Peck comes across his book as a warm and sensitive person and he makes you feel at ease instantly... What else would you expect from whose opening sentence is "Life is difficult." !

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unquestionably inspiring
Review: Whether I found this book, or it found me, is hardly relevant these days. What I do know is that it was timely, life-altering, and poignant in its depiction of life, love, spirituality, and psychology as we know it.

Oftentimes, one comes across a reading that takes itself too seriously, tries in vain towards guru posturing, or comes apart in cotton candy rhetoric. The Road Less Traveled offered a most healthy balance of esoteric spirituality and somewhat "in your face" science and information regarding humanity, its choices and options for a better self/world.

No one coming away from this piece will doubt that there is always hope, and a glory and grace undefined in taking the road less traveled in our interactions with self and others.
