review 1: This book is full of little nuggets of wisdom and advice. Best not read in one go but rather, spaced out. One could easily rip through it in a day but to truly enjoy and learn from the lessons I found it best to read but a few pages and then think on it for a while until I was ready to read some more. Don't expect to be enthralled or bound by the words but instead to be challenged and just occasionally entertained by the lessons presented as short story's or anecdotes. Worth a read if you're looking for an introduction to Confucius and his teachings.
review 2: It was an amazing read. At first when I started it, it did not strike me as anything extraordinary because the interpretations are so simple even a lay man can understand, but the more I read, the more I ... morebegin to like the simplistic explanation and the calm tone of voice. Like the author says in the book, he ideal temperature should be just warm because if it is to high, it well soon become cold. I think this is a book that should be read again and again to help us find a path in today's complicated world. less
