I keep coming back to this one. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Solid, if not essential.
Grabbed this during a weekend order. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. Would buy from this store again.
This has been on my wishlist for months. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Already eyeing my next order.
A friend in my study group recommended this one. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today.
Finley’s text serves as a practical manual for replacing imagined futures with the empowering reality of now, utilizing intimate essays and contemporary parables to address specific emotional obstacles. The unique dialogues with figures like Buddha and Thoreau add depth, though the approach may feel overly simplistic to those accustomed to rigorous academic theology or complex metaphysical systems. It is not suited for readers seeking dense philosophical treatises or those skeptical of self-help methodologies. However, for those willing to engage with its interactive exercises, it offers a sincere and accessible route to shedding the weight of endless striving.
