Negative Positive
Title: not as good as other reviews suggest
Review: Short treatise on the value of appreciating the simple things in life. The problem here is that the vocabulary used here is beyond many readers. While that is fine when such words are required to convey meaning, here they seem to be used just for the sake of using them. They get in the way and obstruct the reading and meaning unnecessarily.The book also presents appreciation of small things as being superior to appreciating other things yet the argument is not backed up with any rationale. For that I find this book to be a bit shallow. I think there are other books on eastern philosophy that would serve the reader better.
