I think, if you stop trying to find the exact point in this book and hold it to that standard, it suddenly seems very useful. This book might be about untangling self, but for many who have not yet divined what they believe self is, it can be awfully confusing. Still, if you take a look at this book as a whole, it has a lot of very good advice for looking at the world through a Buddhist lens.

If you can come into this book with an open mind and relax when you read it, the advice becomes much clearer. Once I was fully engaged with this book, I felt like I learned a lot from the examples that the author gave.

Over all, I thought this was a helpful book with a lot to offer the reader.
