The most important book I've ever read!

This book is a must-read for anyone raising a boy -- ESPECIALLY fathers. I'm so glad that I've read this book while my son is still an infant.
Not only have I learned a lot about what it will be like for my son growing up, but it helped me connect to myself. So much of this book brought me back to events in my own childhood and helped me understand more about myself. There are so many things that I wouldn't have realized had I not read this book.
Having read this book I feel much better prepared to be an understanding and emotionally nurturing father to my son. This will be a gift that I will give to any of my friends who are currently raising a young boy or are about to have a boy.

This is probably one of the most important, if not the most important, books I have ever read on the subject of speaking in tongues.  Bishop Hamon's scriptural insight into this very important foundational doctrine cannot be overstated.  Additionally, the constant referral to the Bible-related scriptures is invaluable as you dig deeper and see the relationship of other scriptures to the subject.  I cannot encourage you enough to make the investment in this book, not only for yourself, but also for others, especially new Christians.  My wife and I have bought at least 20 copies to give out to friends and relatives.  I have also made a commitment to pray in tongues a minimum of 30 minutes a day and can honestly testify that I have seen a remarkable change in my own prayer life.  Bishop Hamon's explanation of the relationship between tongues and the development and growth of the fruit of the Spirit is a huge encouragement to those who are trying to build their character on their own.  This book and Bishop Hamon have definitely encouraged me to "stir up the gift"!

I've read all of Andy Andrew's books, and I think this is the most important book he's ever written.  It should be required reading for every citizen in America.  If you've ever wanted to make a difference in what's going on in our great land, then this is the book that you need to read.  It will really get your thought juices flowing and inspire you to action.  You CAN make a difference by taking ACTION and DOING something to turn our country around!  Andy's book beautifully illustrates the value of your vote and will help you to see the importance of making informed decisions as you vote. Read it, then share it with everyone you know. Teachers, you must read this to your students and guide them to reliable resources to help them make informed decisions. It only takes about 20 minutes to read, but it will change you thinking for a lifetime!

I believe that this is the most important book since the Bible.  Scratch that, it's more important than the Bible.  The artistic element of this book is certainly on par with the works of Shakespeare, combined with the action of a James Bond film.  Car chases, shoot outs in libraries and train stations, this book has everything you could ever possibly want.  In fact, if you're like me, after reading this, you'll never want to read a book again because nothing else can even compare.  Even the most acclaimed books, such as The Inferno, 1984, Catch-22, Fight Club, even How To Live With A Huge Penis can't possibly compare to the epicness of this book.  I strongly encourage anyone to buy this book, just be prepared to have your standards raised about 100 bars.

This is one of the most important books I have ever read.  I wouldn't have said this even a decade ago, but the older I get, the more I value and  invite the seemingly inexplicable changes that can and do happen as a result of being open to experiences that defy our rational minds.  Since this book was first published I have had my own extremely positive "quantum change" - an experience so out of the norm and unexpected, which was more "real" than reality.  This experience became the foundation for the rest of my life.  Read this book with an open mind, and with an awareness, as the authors state, that "there are many ways to know truth."

This is a really important book. I highly recommend it!

This is a book for EVERYONE to read! If everyone would read this book and  live by its' principles, the world would be a better place! Every page is  full of so much truth-- eternal truths which are applicable to everyone.  This book can be helpful to any and every problem in life. I plan to read  this book over and over again. It definately isn't a book to be read once  and put on a shelf to collect dust. This book isn't a thriller or a  gripping novel, yet I find it hard to put the book down. I am so thankful  that someone introduced me to this book. It's changed the way I see the  world. It's helping me to realize my potential, and the potential of all  around me. It's amazing! I can't reccommend this book highly enough. Read  it! Then read it again and again!

This is one of the best books I've ever read.  The prose flows beautifully, the subject she covers is timeless and important, and I've been strongly impacted by what she wrote.  I usually cannot read books fast enough - I have to get to the next chapter.  I forced myself to read this slowly, and to mull over what she wrote, and I'm so glad I did.  In fact, I am going to read it again starting tomorrow (finished it this morning), to try to extract as much truth as I can at this point in my life.  I really hope that by this time next year, my life and the lives of my family will have been positively impacted by what I read in this book.  I think that will be the case.

Do not hesitate to buy this book - you will be so glad you did.

I'm only about 1/3 of the way through the book, but I already know that this is one of the most important books I'll ever read.

This is unquestionably the most profound book I have ever read outside of the Bible. I have been impacted as never before--outside of my initial encounter with the Lord nearly 33 years ago. That experience forever changed my life and led me down a path from which I have never strayed.
 This book has come to me at a time when that path has led to a crossroads that finds me gunning my internal engine as I ponder which way to go. The sign at the entrance to one route is clearly marked and promises smooth traveling ahead. The other route has a sign that says simply, "Warning, proceed cautiously!" The path I have chosen is the one of unchartered waters, thanks largely to my having read Sheldon's masterpiece.
 This book was written more than a century ago, and the characters in it felt as though the world around them was out of control. Sound familiar?
 Read this book and decide for yourself. But remember: Proceed cautiously!

The best book i've ever read! I'm buying several copies and giving them out. This is the most important book of TRUE american history and so-called science EVER written. Each truth is clearly "cited" to scholarly  journals. It is quite surprising, but very predictable...and dotted with  bits of humor. Must read for ALL Native and non-native alike.

Probably one of the most important books I have ever read. I was so impressed after reading the kindle version I bought the hardback copy as well for my library. There wasn't a single page that didn't contain words of wisdom. After reading the first half of the book I put into practice some of the processes Mr Parent talked about and I have to say I have never enjoyed 18 holes more. At 60 I have been playing for about 4 years and am a 12 handicapper. This book will take me to another level. But the real kicker is that it isn't just a book about golf... Brilliant!

No way would I go through the rest of my life without reading this book!

as the other reviewers have noted, this book will change your entire world view. it is, in my opinion, the most important book of the 20th century. her insights can be applied to any culture--the cultures in which people were not beaten into obedience and any militaristic culture you'd care to name. those brave enough to apply these insights to their own life and behavior will change their lives for the better.

miller has stated that she no longer considers herself a member of the psychoanalytical profession--a profession which rejected her ideas nearly completely. in the same way, the 19th medical world ostracised freud and his study of incest and it's effects in a 'decent' family. the truth will set you free, which is why those in authority--academic, social, political, financial--want it buried. there is also, of course, the fact that many people run away screaming from the thought of accepting the truth of their own childhoods.

even if you had an idyllic childhood and are so mentally and emotionally healthy you can't find anyone to talk to, read this book--it will illuminate other peoples' behavior, ambitions, and intents.

i have spent nearly 20 years encouraging people to read this book. i have yet to convince one person to do so. to see that there are people who have read it and understood her thesis is a great relief.

marcus aurelius wrote that nowhere but in his own mind is a man truly free. this book could give you back the freedom of your own mind.

This book is easy to read, but electrifying.  I read it when I was twelve, and it changed my life forever.  I cannot imagine what kind of person I'd be if I had not read this book.

Of all the books I've read with technical basis, intending to introduce the reader to scientific or mathematical theory - this is among the most entertaining and important I've ever read.

The information in it may be too commonplace for some scientists or mathematicians, but I'd heartily recommend it to the ordinary person who's curious about the world around them!

(& To the scientists and mathematicians I'd still say ... just give a whirl.) :)

I heard somewhere that there's really only two choices we can always make: the right and the other one. I don't know how this book is possibly not the right one! Once you read it, there's just no turning back. It's a mind blower, a life changing.

And it's interesting how the message can be understood by everyone who reads it. I'm a 20 years old guy who never liked to read, never believed in any religion, Gods, Jesus and didn't even consider atheism. I thought I was simply going nowhere with my mind...

My gentle recommendation to you that reads this review is:
Open your mind to what this book offers, the rest does itself!

Enjoy the ride you're about to get in!

I would unequivocally say that this book is the best and most important book I have ever read on parenting. Most parenting books address discipline and ways to cope with immediate problems, but this book goes far beyond the symptons and deals directly with the CAUSE, the lack of "emotional communication between parents and children". We  all have constantly looked for ways to resolve these problems, but no one has ever so simply and definitively explained them. This is the first book on parenting that addresses the "heart" of the matter, so to speak, and demonstrates and explains why these conflicts arise and ways to  deal with them, whether your child is three or thirty. In addition to reading this wonderfully honest and innovative book based on Dr Ross- Glazer's prolific experiences while working with children and parents throughout her career as a therapist, she also candidly shares with the reader her personal experiences with her own children that so drastically changed when SHE learned the "language of Parenting" You will finally have all the answers that you were so frantically looking for in all of the previous books written on the subject. Not only is this book a must read for all parents (and gandparents), but to all  people, (wives and husbands included), and to everyone in all kinds of interpersonal relationships. I not only wish I had this book when I was a new parent, but wished that my own parents had it as well. Kudos to Dr Ross -Glazer for an extremely simple, pragmatic and easy to read book that deals so astutely with the overwhelming complexities of raising children, as well as yourself,
