- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2014Just completed reading this master-piece. The 1st thought that kept crossing my mind was, how come this great book did not make it into a "Bestsellers" list!
This is a good guide for many reasons: If anyone is looking for a consolidated book, which talks about moral values, ethics, importance of religion, uselessness of material items, character building and what it takes, bad examples that are portrayed in the media in the form of celebrities (and why), health consequences when trying to emulate bad examples, ill effects of sexual intercourse at early age, etc., this book is most likely your best bet.
The last few years, thanks to the penetration of technical gadgets, children are distancing themselves from indulging in activities that bring true happiness and getting attracted to material items that they think give them happiness. One can only wish that this bad phenomenon stops, although it is an uphill climb.
My only criticism on the book is that the Author seemed to have been only talking about Judaism and Christianity, when talking about the importance of religion. I think it would have better if such specific references were taken out -- at times, these references appeared a bit promotional in nature. Every religion is great in its own way, as long as they are out there preaching peace, harmony and ethical values.
