[quote name="Fussbett"]Amazon user review: [quote name="Eugene A Jewett"]Chap 7 - "Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid" - He discusses his Vietnam experiences and his turn to the anti-war mentality (I'd suggest he read "Vietnam: the necessary war" by Lind, for background, and also David Horowitz's fine piece on "why we're in Iraq.)" I would have preferred that the author discuss what starts wars and why we engage in them, the why, the when, and the where, and the how???? [/quote] Some advice for the advice giver. Sure, you may be telling me how to live, but it looks like you can use some advice of your own, Doc! PS: Vietnam was a good idea. [quote name="Eugene A Jewett"]Chap 11 - "The most secure prisons are the ones we construct for ourselves" - He talks of promises vs actions, and of having a closed mind vs having a willingness to entertain change ("who moved my cheese" by Johnson is good on this subject.) [/quote] Be sure to check out that Cheese book, Quétinbec, if you're looking to expand on chapter 11. Change is good, apparently, but so hard for everyone to understand! Change like... Like changing sex positions?!?!?![/quote]
