Nice preamble/preview...now all I need is $$ for the book and some luck that this isn't something said many times before with just a slightly different angle.

Seriously though and my natural cynicism aside, [me bad, sorry] he says some interesting things. I'm sure all the authors who seemingly pump these books out are all beneficial to some extent. It's really up to the buyer to decipher glean and put into use the methods/observations etc.

Some folks have libraries of these type of books. One would think after reading a few dozen and adapting what they've learned, there would be more sages sitting on tops of mountains then there are.

I'm jesting pachyderm...no disrespect...just a little cynical. I will agree that there are bits and pieces of things that we might find beneficial in perhaps any/all of these books. Does it require we get 'em all? Is THIS the one that might turn the tide? I don't have the dough or patience anymore.

Hence the sardonic grumbly glance.
