Customer Reviews

Loved this book!

This book was easy to read; hard to put down; and took me to another level. Of all the Hugh Prather books I've read so far, this is the one I would recommend starting with. It gave me a whole new way of looking at things. I highly recommend it!

If I Could Rate It Higher, I Would

Hugh Prather has been a gentle, guiding voice to me for decades. He does not preach, but shares; he does not cause more stress by giving you "must do" lists, but leads. He is very funny and tells great stories which made my husband and me laugh 'til we cried. I can not believe I am the first reviewer of this life altering book. We have a dog earred copy that has been read over and over, and I can honestly say that this book and his other book on couples, saved my marriage more than once. People sometimes ask the question, if you could have dinner with anyone in the world--or were stuck on a deserted island--who would you want with you. I would choose Prather.
