Summary: Outstanding but a slightly misleading title.
Review: The title is a bit misleading, but it's one of the finest books on money you'll ever read. Some of the negative reviews on this book have evidently been from those who read the title but not the book. It does NOT teach or perpetuate the belief that everyone is supposed to be wealthy if they're a Christian.What it DOES do is give the average person a GREAT explanation for why things are they way they are and why many economic changes are misunderstood simply because people don't look at a big enough picture. (For instance, a machine takes the place of three workers causing them to lose their jobs...bad news? No, because when those 3 workers find new jobs, the GNP goes up. A simplistic summary of one of Pilzer's examples, but you've really got to read it to appreciate it.) Also, he gives EXCELLENT suggestions for everything from our school system to transporation to healthcare to communications, etc. An absolute WONDERFUL book about how our physical resources are truly UNLIMITED and that the only "lack" we have is the lack of appropriation.

Summary: This is an MIND-OPENING book!!
Review: This book is PHENOMENAL, and I'm no rookie when it comes to reading this type of material. You name the author, I've gotten at least a piece of him/her: Kiyosaki, Robbins, Hansen, Hill, Carnegie, Orman, Schwartz. "God wants you to be rich" is PHENOMENAL, and I can't wait to track down everything else he's written. So far, the title has been completely misleading in that I was expecting something ENTIRELY different. Then again "economic theory and how it'll change" is hardly an interesting title. Did I mention that this book is PHENOMENAL, and that it's REALLY PROPHETIC?? This is a pre-internet book, and yet it discusses how technology changes the world and the economy. No matter WHAT the title suggests, this book is NOT AT ALL what you'd expect. This book is entirely engaging; he writes with enough examples so you know EXACTLY what he means, and each one of them is FASCINATING.
PLEASE do yourself a favor and READ THIS BOOK- it'll COMPLETELY change the way you see the economic world- ESPECIALLY if you're completely UNINTERESTED in it!

Summary: You can find a better book!
Review: This book was not good at all, because of two things ~ it use big words that would require a MBA or a PhD to interpert this. Second, the author was not clear in at all. But then again that is my opinion. I was expecting a how to book not a historical piece on economics

Summary: Informative!!!!
Review: Wonderful book and he's a terrific speaker, humorous and serious at the same time. This book does NOT promote the "love" of money but it explains why you shouldn't feel guilty because you are prosperous. The Bible promotes prosperity as well as helping others. Plus, being rich doesn't just mean having a lot of money. this book talks about being rich in all aspects of life. It's the "love" of money that is evil just like the "love" of food is what makes us fat. Does that mean that food is bad? Get this book and read it....you'll gain new understanding of wealth. Read this book, it will show you how being prosperous only benefits everything and everybody. It only makes sense. Poor people can't help poor people. Higher income areas of our country have the higher paid teachers and the best schools and the best SAT scores. That's only one example. Great book and besides that, Pilzer is a really great guy.
